"Hard Pill" lyrics

At his college reunion
And, no, I'm not stupid
I knew that she'd be here
And, no, I can't lie
I've looked her up often
His ex down in Boston
Someone that pretty can't also be nice

She proved me wrong
When she walked up, said hi
Soft tone, dark hair
And those beautiful brown eyes

That's a hard pill to swallow
A tough act to follow
A big lump in my throat
'Cause she's got it all
And we talked over cosmos
And laughed 'til the bar closed
And now, even I know
What made him fall
I thought meeting her would make me worry less
But, damn, it went and scared me half to death
No way she ain't got a piece of his heart still
Damn, that's a hard pill

Well, she's smart but she's funny
Humble but with money
Smooth skin like honey
And easy on the eyes
And jeans loose in a size two
Said she likes my tattoos
And the worst part, the sad truth
After meeting her tonight

We'd probably be friends
In another life
He's holding my hand
So why's she on my mind?

That's a hard pill to swallow
A tough act to follow
A big lump in my throat
'Cause she's got it all
And we talked over cosmos
And laughed 'til the bar closed
And now, even I know
What made him fall
I thought meeting her would make me worry less
But, damn, it went and scared me half to death
No way she ain't got a piece of his heart still
Damn, that's a hard pill

Damn, that's a hard pill

That's a hard pill to swallow
A tough act to follow
A big lump in my throat
She's got it all
And we talked over cosmos
And laughed 'til the bar closed
And now, even I know
What made him fall
I thought meeting her would make me worry less
But, damn, it went and scared me half to death
No way she ain't got a piece of his heart still
Damn, that's a hard pill

Damn, that's a hard pill
