Hardest Time Lyrics - Disconnected In New York City - Los Lobos

A toast to love with paper cups 

And a vow to never part 

They're saying to each other there's a fire burning 

Deep within their hearts 

But at her darkest hour he's gone far away 

She's all alone 

And when the lights go out it's the hardest time 

The hardest time to be alone

She sends her Mary off to school 

And sits to watch TV 

They're talking about spending their lives together 

The way it's supposed to be 

Then the baby cries, wakes her from her dream 

She's on her own 

And when the lights go out it's the hardest time 

The hardest time to be alone 

A mother's dream is like a story never told 

Reaching out for something more then a hand to hold 

Wanting the girl she left behind 

So far behind 

Photos 

Pen and paper in her hand 

To write the folks back home 

She's telling them again that her life is better 

Not like long ago 

Then her shaking hand tears across the page 

Crumbles to the floor 

And when the lights go out it's the hardest time 

The hardest time to be alone
