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 my 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, yeah
 ♪
 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
