It's Getting Harder All The Time

Can I share this with you?
Baby you know imagination is really funny
Sometimes it's very hard to do, it's impossible
Many nights and days I've, I've tried to imagine
What it would be like to love you,
I've even tried to imagine what you would look like
Being loved, and I, I, I can't do it
I'm trying to do what a gentleman would do
Trying to be patient and tolerant
All the things that a man is supposed to be but
I just wanted you to know very honestly
That I'm very anxious to be with you

It's getting harder all the time,
Just to keep myself from wanting you
Harder every day for me to stay away
Knowing girl without your loving
I ain't worth one dime
It's getting harder, harder all the time
All the time, it's getting hard every night
Yes to keep my hands from touching you
Oh Darling, once I do and I hear you sigh,
I might as well kiss my poor heart goodbye
Ain't it just a crime, it's getting harder, harder all the time
All the time.

There's no fighting what I feel,
Though God knows I've tried.
Tried to hold back my love for you
Is like trying to hold back the tide.
It's getting harder, harder, harder all the time
I can't stop needing you.
Harder every day for me to find a way to keep myself
From the tenderness of your lips touching mine.
It's getting harder, harder all the time
All the time.
I ain't worth a dime, it's getting harder, harder all the time
Harder, harder all the time.
