Change is Hard

You looked up at me with fire in your eyes
and said the time had come for me to decide.
Some habits I had were unhealthy for you.
You gave your final warnin’… I had to choose.

Chorus:    
Ain’t it strange that change is hard 
even when it’s for our own good.
But it made it easier 
knowin’ you believed that I could.
Yes, the strain of change is hard 
yet you’ve loved me every step of the way                             
and now the “me” I used to be seems strange.      
    
I thought to myself, “How can you judge?”
Tried to change the subject; you wouldn’t budge.
You stood and you stared; you were loving yet firm.
I fumbled for excuses… you watched me squirm.

Repeat Chorus

Through all the changes I felt like a stranger   
yet your love remained the same.     

Now I look up to you with pride inside 
and say, “I’d like to share the rest of our lives.
But there’s one little change I’d like to see,
Girl, oh girl, will you marry me?”

Ain’t it strange that change is hard.
Ain’t it strange that change is hard.
