Lyrics: daryl hall john oates Music: daryl hall, john oates, neil jason Don't want to face it but i know that it's time to go home I cannot say what i want to say when we're alone I've got to leave but i want to stay Where you are is so far from the u.s. of a. When we're more than half a world away It's so hard to be in love with you Operator, international 011, oh Put your love on the line, put your ear to the phone Maybe it's no longer than a night and a day But where you are is so far from the u.s. of a. And it ain't so easy, easy on the heart It's so hard to be in love with you
