It's hard to be


It's hard for me to keep arm's length from my baby





Can't you see


When I'm away from her it sho' nuff drives me crazy





Something inside of me....When she's gone I miss her so


I wanna tell her how I feel....Just gotta let her know





When I'm alone with her


And she's in my arms I'm in heaven





It's all I see


In my dreams, we'll be happy together





Side by side


I hope that our love will stay this way forever





Something inside of me....Got a feelin' that won't let go


I wanna tell her how I feel....I just gotta let her know





Lookin' through her eyes


I see a paradise, no mistake she's full of fire





Like a real live wire....A house on fire


She's my burnin', she's my burnin', burnin' desire





Well it's hard to be


It's hard for me to keep arm's length from my baby





Oh can't you see


When I'm away from her it sho' nuff drives me crazy





Something inside of me....When she's gone I miss her so


I wanna tell her how I feel....I just gotta let her know





When I'm alone with her


And she's in my arms I'm in heaven





Like a real live wire....A house on fire


She's my burnin', she's my burnin', burnin' desire





Hard to be....It's hard for me


It's hard to keep, keep me from my baby
