Lyrics:

Seems like it was just a while ago
All of my friends and I
Went to each other's weddings
And stood by each other's side
And became brides

Talking on the phone to Kurt today
He said that he and Liz were through
And by the way that things have been going
You could say that they were overdue
For every other married pair of us
That already split in two
Each of us turning our own lives alone
Or sleeping with someone new
Ain't it true?
These are hard times for lovers
Everyone wants to be free
Ain't these hard times for lovers?
Everyone singing, 'I gotta be me
Without you'

Now, honey, I'm supposed to tell you
I've got to live for today
And don't you know it is my lifetime?
I've got to live it my own way
But lately I can't help thinking
I reap what I sow
For all of my holy freedom
What have I got to show
I don't know
These are hard times for lovers
Everyone wants to be free
Ain't these hard times for lovers?
Everyone singing, 'I gotta be me
Without you'

But lately I can't help thinking
I reap what I sow
For all of my holy freedom
What have I got to show
I don't know
These are hard times for lovers
Everyone wants to be free
Ain't these hard times for lovers?
Everyone singing, 'I gotta be me
Without you'
Ain't these hard times for lovers?
Everyone wants to be free
Ain't these hard times for lovers?
Everyone singing, 'I gotta be me
Without you'
