Rock N' A Hard Place Lyrics - Ambrosia

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
