Hard To Say Goodbye
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Little butterfly without wings, how do you fly?
You're holdin' on so tight that you don't even try
And if I had a dream (if I had)
Love would be sunshine for me
You are my air to breathe
You're just like honey to a bee
Baby, believe I'll be back
It's hard to say goodbye
Baby, believe I'll be back
It hurts you every time
When you appeared to me
You let me know what love could be
You gave me confidence
You showed me light, you stayed with me
It's you I'm dreamin' of (you I'm dreamin' of)
Night and day when I contemplate
You are my everything
I'm standin' with you
You are my heart
Baby, believe I'll be back
It's hard to say goodbye
Baby, believe I'll be back
It hurts you every time
Baby, believe I'll be back
It's hard to say goodbye
I feel it all around, there's a fire in my spirit
Needin' you around 'cause I'm down tonight
Feelin' like a clown 'cause I'm cryin' every minute
We'll get by tonight, we'll get by tonight
Baby, believe I'll be back (whoa, whoa)
It's hard to say goodbye
Baby, believe I'll be back (whoa, whoa)
It hurts me every time
