It ain´t no fun lying down to sleep And there ain´t no secrets left for me to keep I wish the stars up in the sky Would all just call in sick And the clouds would take the moon out
On some one-way trip
I drove all night down streets that wouldn´t bend But somehow they drove me back here once again To the place I lost at love, and the place I lost my soul I wish I´d just burn down this place that we called home It would all have been so easy If you´d only made me cry And told me how you´re leaving me To some organ grinder´s lullaby
It´s hard, so hard - it´s tearing out my heart It´s hard letting you go
Now the sky, it shines a different kind of blue And the neighbor´s dog don´t bark like he used to
Well - me, these days I just miss you - it´s the nights that I go insane Unless you´re coming back for me That´s one thing I know that won´t change
It´s hard, so hard - it´s tearing out my heart It´s hard letting you go
Now some tarot card shark said I´ll draw you a heart And we´ll find you somebody else new But I´ve made my last trip to those carnival lips When I bet all that I had on you
It´s hard, it´s hard, it´s hard, so hard It´s hard letting you go It´s hard, so hard, it´s tearing out my heart
