It ain´t no fun lying down to sleep
And there ain´t no secrets left for me to keep
I wish the stars up in the sky
Would all just call in sick
And the clouds would take the moon out
On some one-way trip

I drove all night down streets that wouldn´t bend
But somehow they drove me back here once again
To the place I lost at love, and the place I lost my soul
I wish I´d just burn down this place that we called home
It would all have been so easy
If you´d only made me cry
And told me how you´re leaving me
To some organ grinder´s lullaby

It´s hard, so hard - it´s tearing out my heart
It´s hard letting you go

Now the sky, it shines a different kind of blue
And the neighbor´s dog don´t bark like he used to
Well - me, these days
I just miss you - it´s the nights that I go insane
Unless you´re coming back for me
That´s one thing I know that won´t change

It´s hard, so hard - it´s tearing out my heart
It´s hard letting you go

Now some tarot card shark said I´ll draw you a heart
And we´ll find you somebody else new
But I´ve made my last trip to those carnival lips
When I bet all that I had on you

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
