[Intro] Much too much to bear [Verse 1] Your love is hard and fast Your love will always last If it's you I need, I've got to pay the levy Got to pay 'cause your love's too heavy on me [Chorus] And it's much too much to bear [Bridge 1] If I ever leave you, darlin' I hope you see That I really love you But your love's too heavy on me [Chorus] And it's much too much to bear [Verse 2] When I make love to you I do all the things you want me to do You never think of me, always cry a bevy A bevy of tears 'cause your love's too heavy on me [Chorus] And it's much too much to bear [Bridge 2] There was a time I could give all I had to you But my enthusiasm waned And I can't bear the pain Of doing what I don't wanna do [Chorus] Much too much to bear (To bear) [Verse 3] Your love is hard and fast Your love will always last If it's you I need, I've got to pay the levy Got to pay 'cause your love's too heavy on me [Chorus] And it's much too much to bear
