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 neighbour'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 Cos it's hard, it's so hard - it's tearing out my heart Cos 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 Well I've made my last trip to those carnival lips When I bet all that I had on you Oh it's hard, it's hard, it's hard, so hard Oh it's hard letting you go Oh it's hard, so hard - it's tearing out my heart But it's hard letting you go
