"We Work Hard (To Make Love Easy)" lyrics

All my friends are jealous
'Cause you're still lovin' me
But keeping love alive
Hasn't been easy
Our folks tried to tell us
A long, long time ago
That love takes time and
Tender care to grow

We work hard to make love easy
We practice every day
To get love right
We work hard to make love easy
And we're gonna work a little
Harder on love tonight

Sometimes when I'm angry
I take it out on you
And you smile and forgive me
Because you want to
Your touch helps me remember
A lesson that we've learned
You've gotta give love
To get love in return

Oh, we work hard to make love easy
We practice every day
To get love right
We work hard to make love easy
And we're gonna work a little
Harder on love tonight

Well, we've suffered through
Our share of heartaches
All along the way
But each one made us stronger
And now I'm proud to say

We work hard to make love easy
(Make things easy now)
We practice every day
To get love right
We work hard to make love easy
(Oh, make things easy)
And we're gonna work a
Little harder on love tonight

We're gonna work a little
Harder on love tonight

Oh, we work hard to make love easy
(Oh make things easy now)
We practice every day
To get love right
We work hard to make love easy
(So much better now)
And we're gonna work a
Little harder on love tonight
