Lyrics

Flowers on the kitchen table
Seeds scatter like a fable
Sun stream through the maple
Everything moves as it stays still

Hard times, hard times will come again
Hard times will go
We will each have another chance
Again to grow

Eat the bread and the honey
Fell the trees, count the money
Isn’t it awful sunny
When even the hills are running

Separation devastation
It’s a paralysing situation
In a world of overstimulation
We are of the same creation

Hard times, hard times will come again
Hard times will go
We will each have another chance
Again to grow

Dark-haired girl in the dirt
Eyes wide with the earth
Knows the worm greets the bird
Carries with her every birth

From the flame came the phoenix
First the rain then the kleenex
As we return to what will be next
Sisyphus can’t reach the zenith

Hard times, hard times will come again
Hard times will go
We will each have another chance
Again to grow
Hard times, hard times will come again
Hard times will go

Turtle dove taking cover
In the brush with her lover
We only want to discover
How to help one another

Hard times, hard times will come again
Hard times will go
We will each have another chance
Again to grow
Hard times, hard times will come again
Hard times will go
We will each have another chance
Again to grow
We will each have another chance
Again to grow
