Hard Lines, Hard Times

We got word about the sunlight It's much hotter now than it was back before us I've been staring at the crack beneath the doorway With the lock turned just enough to keep my enemies away [Chorus] Hard lines, finding where I lie, hard times [Verse 2] When you took me out to the desert And the open sky redeemed my hesitation And the evening sun turned your hair, you're golden Made me forget I didn't know where I was goin' [Chorus] Hard lines, finding where I lie, hard times [Verse 3] Breathing up all those cigarettes On your old front porch It's been restored but I still see where we used to sit There's a burn mark on the plastic armrest Memory please don't fade Like a photo left out in the pouring rain Don't fade, don't fade [Chorus] Hard lines, finding where I lie, hard times Hard lines, even when I die, hard times Hard lines, finding where I lie, hard times
