Breaking up is so very hard to do 
If you really love him 
And there's nothing 
I can do Don't try to spare my feelings 
Just tell me that we're through 
And make it easy on yourself 
Make it easy on yourself '
Cause breaking up is so very hard to do 
And if the way 
I hold you 
Can't compare to his caress 
No words of consolation 
Will make me miss you less 
My darling, if this is goodbye 
I just know 
I'm gonna cry 
So run to him 
Before you start crying too 
And make it easy on yourself 
Make it easy on yourself '
Cause breaking up is so very hard to do 
Oh, baby, it's so hard to do
