Intro :
It ain't no fun l ying down to sl eep
And there ain't no secrets l eft for me to ke ep
I wish the stars up in the sky
Would a ll just call in si ck
And the clouds would take the moon out
On some one- way trip
I drove all night down s treets that wouldn't be nd
But some how they drove me b ack here once agai n
To the place I lost at l ove, and the pl ace I lost my sou l
I wish I'd just burn d own this place that we called hom e
It would all have been so easy
If you'd o nly made me cr y
And told me how you're leaving me
To some o rgan grinder's lu llaby
It's hard, so hard
It's tearing out my heart
It's hard, letting you go
Now the sky, it shines a diff erent kind of blue
And the neighbor's dog don't b ark like he used to
Well, me, these days I just miss you
It's the n ights that I go in sane
Un less you're coming back for me
That's o ne thing I know that wo n't change
It's hard, so hard
It's tearing out my heart
It's hard, letting you go
Instrumental : (x4)
Now some tarot card shark said I'll draw you a heart
And we'll f ind you somebody else ne w
But I've made my last trip to those carnival lips
When I b et all that I had on yo u
It's hard, it's hard, it's hard, so hard
It's hard, letting you go
It's hard, so hard
It's tearing out my heart
But it's hard, letting you go
Finale : (Ad lib)
