Story Behind The Song
Just fooling around with a pop-like chord progression. The band all joined in. Wanted to make a light, fun pop tune. Here you go.
Song Description
Nothing heavy, just having fun with the band. I liked the kind of quaint, dated lyrics and sentiments. You don't hear that kind of talk much anymore.

Lyrics
Hard to Believe
JD Carroll/ Creative Ventures Music,Inc./ ASCAP
I find it Hard to Believe
with all my smiles and my tricks up my sleeve
that you could come along and sweep me off my feet.
I thought I always knew
all of the answers and just what to do
then I turned around and took a look at you.
So please excuse me for sounding so forward
but would you like to step out tonight?
I wouldn't blame you if you laughed in my face
some people think it might serve me right
some people think it might serve me right.
I always was the one
who never worried about loving someone.
Whenever love came close I began to run.
You brighten up my day
You can laugh but I mean what I say
may I take your coat and ask you to stay.
So please excuse me for sounding so forward
but the right words are quite hard to find.
As of late I've been thinking a lot
I guess you could say you've been on my mind
I guess you could say you've been on my mind.
Instrumental
So please excuse me for sounding so forward
but would you like to step out tonight?
I wouldn't blame you if you laughed in my face
some people think it might serve me right
some people think it might serve me right.
