Kronsberg-Puerta-Pack I've waited twice as long as any man should To tell you how I feel You gathered in my chosen words And ground them underneath your heel I asked you for a bit of time A little breathin' space But your gift to me was A rock n' a hard place Rock n' a hard place (Leaves a man no place to go) Rock n' a hard place (Ain't no room for love to grow) Rock n' a hard place, Rock n' a hard place I laid too high a stake on lovin' you, babe To let you say goodbye How could you think I'd last alone? I can't go on. There's no use tryin' I'm askin' for a second chance A little savin' grace You're leavin' me between A rock n' a hard place Rock n' a hard place (Leaves a man no place to go) Rock n' a hard place (Ain't no room for love to grow) Rock n' a hard place, Rock n' a hard place Won't you tell me why You're leavin' tonight Throwin' our love away? Don't you see my plight? It just isn't right To be left this way I've waited twice as long as any man should To tell you how I feel You gathered in my chosen words And ground them underneath your heel I asked you for a bit of time A little breathin' space But your gift to me was A rock n' a hard place Rock n' a hard place (Leaves a man no place to go) Rock n' a hard place (Ain't no room for love to grow) Rock n' a hard place, Rock n' a hard place Rock n' a hard place (Leaves a man no place to go) Rock n' a hard place (Ain't no room for love to grow) Rock n' a hard place, Rock n' a hard place
