So Hard
ϯÑÇÀ­ Ciara Lyrics

He made it so hard
Her past lover made it difficult for her to trust and fall in love again

To trust someone
She finds it hard to trust anyone again after being hurt by her past lover

He made it so hard
Her past lover made it difficult for her to trust and fall in love again

To fall in love
She has a hard time falling in love again because of what her past lover did to her

Not trying to mess up this relationship (thinkin')
She is being cautious not to ruin the new relationship she is in

'Cause the last man did me that way
Her past lover hurt her in a way that makes it difficult for her to trust anyone again

You gon do the same things I
She is afraid that her current partner may do the same things her past lover did to hurt her

Don't wanna be this way
She does not want to continue feeling fearful and unable to trust

But I'm hoping you can change
She hopes her current partner can prove her wrong and help her regain trust in love

The way that I feel
She wants to feel confident and secure in her relationship again

(ooooo)you see
She is trying to explain her feelings to her partner

I trusted him with everything
She trusted her past lover completely and did not hold back anything from him

Never held back anything
She was honest and open with her past lover, believing they would be together for life

Thought we'd be 2gether for the rest of our lives
She believed that she had found her soulmate and would spend the rest of her life with him

So suddenly he took his love away
Her past lover abruptly ended their relationship, leaving her feeling heartbroken and betrayed

And made it hard to trust again (oooo)
Her past lover's actions made it difficult for her to trust anyone again

I know I been holding back
She is aware that she has been holding back her feelings because of her fear of being hurt again

But he really hurt me bad
Her past lover hurt her deeply and it has affected her ability to trust and love again

I don't wanna take my past
She does not want to let her past negatively impact her current relationship

And put it all on you
She does not want to burden her current partner with her past experiences

I'm not tryna hold you back
She wants to move forward with her current partner without being held back by her past

Really hope you understand
She wants her partner to understand why she is hesitant and fearful of love

I don't know what I'm gonna do
She is uncertain about how to move forward with her current partner

When I think of what he did to me
She is reminded of how her past lover hurt her and it affects her ability to fall in love

It makes it hard to fall in love
Her memories of her past lover make it difficult for her to open herself up to love again

When I think about just what I need
She is unsure about what she needs in a relationship after being hurt so deeply

It makes it hard to trust someone
Her fear of being hurt again makes it hard for her to trust anyone

Baby I gotta let go
She knows she needs to let go of her past to move forward in her current relationship

Don't wanna miss out on love this time
She does not want her past hurt to prevent her from experiencing true love in the present

Gotta leave those things behind
She recognizes that she needs to leave her past hurt and fear behind to move forward in her relationship

Whatever's yours
She wants to share everything with her current partner

You call it ours send flowers
She wants to share everything and create a life together with her partner

With love you keep me showered
Her current partner shows her love and affection, but she is still fearful of getting hurt

But so did my x-man at first
Her past lover also showed her love and affection in the beginning, but eventually hurt her deeply

You see what started out so simple
She remembers how her past relationship started out so simple and loving, but ended up hurting her

All flew out the window
Her past lover's love and trust went away suddenly and unexpectedly

There I go comparing you to him again
She is aware that she is comparing her current partner to her past lover and wants to stop doing it

It keeps holding me down (i gotta let it go)
Her memories of her past lover keep holding her back from fully trusting and loving her current partner

I wanna give love a chance (but you may never know)
She wants to give love a chance with her current partner, but is unsure if it will work out

Baby you can be the the one for me
She believes that her current partner can be the one for her, but is still hesitant

Yes the only one for me
She believes that her current partner is the only one for her

And I don't want to loose a good thing nooo...
She does not want to lose her chance at true love with her current partner

One disappointment, one heart break
She has experienced disappointment and heartbreak in the past, which has affected her ability to trust and love again

To many mistakes in love I've made
She acknowledges that she has made mistakes in love in the past

I can't come with all this baggage
She knows that she cannot bring all of her past hurt and fear into her current relationship

Thinking he's gonna have it
She does not want her current partner to have to deal with her past baggage and hurt

See I know I'm being selfish
She is aware that she may be being selfish by holding back her trust and love

But I gotta let it go
She knows she needs to let go of her past hurt and fear to fully love and trust her current partner

Close that chapter, close that book
She wants to close the chapter on her past hurt and fear and move forward in her relationship

Faith in love is all it ever took
She has faith that love can overcome her past hurt and bring her happiness

That's why I never gave up and never gave in
She never gave up on finding true love despite her past hurt

'Cause I know true love is waitin' for me again
She believes that she can find true love again and wants to let go of her past hurt to give it a chance
