what is the song that says hARD TO HOLD ON O A DREAMER

The song is most likely “Don’t Fall in Love with a Dreamer” by Kenny Rogers and Kim Carnes. The lyric you heard sounds close to “hard to hold on to a dreamer,” but that’s not the exact title line.

Why this fits

• The title and theme match the word dreamer closely.

• It’s a well-known duet, so the line may have been misheard from the chorus or a similar-sounding lyric.

Another possibility

There’s also “Times Are Hard for Dreamers” from Amélie , which includes the phrase “hard for dreamers,” but it does not match your wording as closely as the Kenny Rogers song.

Quick answer

If you’re trying to name the song from that phrase, go with “Don’t Fall in Love with a Dreamer.”
