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 my cruelly Where is the mercy, where is the love? You see, pa**ion 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 wain 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.
