Hard On Me Lyrics

Cover art for Hard On Me lyrics by Tom Petty

i agree that this song is about a guy loosing his wife and having to try to stay strong for his daughter. not sure if his wife has died or left him. "how big do i have to be" makes it sound as if she has left him but i think he is talking to a higher power as in the beginning of the song he is tlaking about trying to keep faith. beautiful song
