If I listen long enough to you
I'd find a way to believe that it's all true
Knowing, that you lied, straight-faced
While I cried
But still I'd look to find a reason to believe
Someone like you makes it hard to live
Without, somebody else
Someone like you, makes it easy to give
Never think of myself
If I gave you time to change my mind
I'd find a way to leave the past behind
Knowing that you lied, straight-faced
While I cried
But still I'd look to find a reason to believe
(Instrumental)
If I listen long enough to you
I'd find a way to believe it's all true
Knowing that you lied, straight-faced
While I cried
Still I'd look to find a reason to believe.
Tim Hardin (1941-1980) è stato un cantautore statunitense, noto per la sua voce profonda e melodie malinconiche. Nato a Los Angeles, California, Hardin iniziò a suonare la chitarra da giovane e si trasferì a New York negli anni '60, dove entrò nel circuito folk. Il suo album di debutto, "Tim Hardin", uscì nel 1966 e conteneva il successo "If I Were a Carpenter". Hardin è stato un artista influente, con brani come "Reason to Believe" e "Misty Roses" che sono diventati classici del folk-rock. La sua musica spesso esplorava temi di amore, perdita e solitudine, con testi poetici e arrangiamenti raffinati. Malgrado il successo iniziale, Hardin lottò contro la dipendenza da droghe e alcool, che segnarono la sua carriera. Morì a soli 39 anni nel 1980.
