Thanks Mr. Flowers, Love Mrs. Gardiner

There has been one song I've been listening to a whole lot lately and wanted to share it on here. I downloaded the new Brandon Flowers solo album our last night in Paris, and absolutely fell in love with it. It's also the last song Shane and I listened to together at the airport.

I posted a live version, because that's more exciting. Check out the lyrics below. Sweet, I know.




"Hard Enough" by Brandon Flowers

You let me into your life on a whim
And there was magic and fire in the night
In loving I was just a little boy
I made mistakes that caused you so much pain
All I know is that I’m older now

Some people think that it’s best to refrain from the conventions of old-fashioned love
Their hearts are filled with holes and emptiness
They tell themselves that they’re too young to settle down
Girl I promise you I’m older now

And this has been hard enough on you
I know it’s been hard enough on me
Been telling myself that I can roll with the changes

And when the water gets high above your head
Darling don’t you see,
While this has been hard enough on you
It’s been hard enough on me

I wasn’t looking when we built these walls
Let me spread my dreams at your feet
Let’s not let time’s bitter flood rise
Before my thoughts begin to run
I think I’m getting older now

And this has been hard enough on you
I know it’s been hard enough on me
Been telling myself that I can roll with the changes

And when the water gets high above your head
Darling don’t you see,
While this has been hard enough on you
It’s been hard enough on me

Can’t stand the thought of another,talking to you sweet my dear
Where would I be tonight if you hadn’t held me here, in your arms?

And this has been hard enough on you
I know it’s been hard enough on me
Been telling myself that I can roll with the changes

And when the water gets high above your head
Darling don’t you see,
While this has been hard enough on you
It’s been hard enough on me
