[Verse]
Underneath the moon's sad glow
He walks alone where shadows grow
Every heart he tried to seek
Left him feeling small and weak
[Verse 2]
The wrong ones with their empty lies
He'd see it too late in their eyes
Dreams of love that fade away
Lonely nights turn into days
[Chorus]
Why's it so hard to love and be loved
Why do dreams just disappear
He just wants someone to hold him tight
To chase away his endless fear
[Bridge]
In his dreams she laughs and shines
But he's stuck in rough confines
Wondering when the hurt will cease
When his heart will find its peace
[Verse 3]
He hopes for someone true and kind
To find her there and be entwined
No more tears or empty words
Just a love that sings like birds
[Chorus]
Why's it so hard to love and be loved
Why do dreams just disappear
He just wants someone to hold him tight
To chase away his endless fear
