"A Short Song For Susan" lyrics

"A Short Song For Susan"

Hard and lonely
He's too blind to choose her
Open your eyes
She's not one for losers

Love is kind
Ease your mind
You've got nothing but your soul to find

Listen now
How often she's told him
Loosen your hands
That's your heart that you're holdin'

'Cause love ain't easy
Who told you it would be?
Help is humble
I don't know, it could be

Just to hold you in a notion
Of me needin' you
'Cause somewhere I know you need me

Years of indignation
Here's what it's come to
One who believes that he can tell you he loves you

Years of indignation
Here's what it's come to
One who believes that he can tell you he loves you
