Hard Woman

She's a hard woman to please

And I thought about letting her know

She's a hard lady to leave

And I thought about letting her go

She's a tough lady to leave

But I thought about it

She's a hard lady to please, yes she is

I gave her laughter, she wanted diamonds

I was romantic, she treated me cruelly

Where is the mercy, where is the love?

You see, passion has a funny way

Of burning down and running low

And suddenly it goes out

And you wonder where does it go

She's a hard woman to please

I've thought about letting her know

She's a hard lady to leave, yes she is

I gave her laughter, she wanted diamonds

She was unfaithful, treated me cruelly

Where is the mercy, where is the love?

I'm alone at last; something inside of me knows

I could have loved in vain for a thousand years

I have to let her go

I've got to let her go

I've got to say goodbye

How can I say goodbye to my baby?

She's a tough cookie, hard lady

I've got to say goodbye

Alone at last and something inside of me knows

I could have loved in vain for a thousand years

I have to let her go

And time goes so fast

and new love starts so slow

I could have loved in vain for a thousand years

I have to let her go

I've got to let her go

I've got to say goodbye

Hard woman to please, yes you are

Hard woman, tough lady

I've got to, I've got to say goodbye

How can I say goodbye to my baby?

How can I say goodbye to my baby?

So long honey.
