Lyrics

Don't take your love away from me
Don't you leave my heart in misery
If you go, I'll be blue
'Cause breaking up is hard to do
Remember when you held me tight
When you kissed me all through the night
Think of all that we've been through
Breaking up is hard to do
They say that breaking up is hard to do
Now I know, I know that it's true
Don't say this is the end
Instead of breaking up I wish that we were making up again
I beg of you, don't say goodbye
Can't we give our love just one more try?
Come on baby, let's start brand new
'Cause breaking up is hard to do
They say that breaking up is hard to do
And now I know, I know that it's true
Don't say this is the end
Instead of breaking up I wish that we were making up again
I beg of you, don't say goodbye
Can't we give our love just one more try
Come on baby, let's start brand new
'Cause breaking up is hard to do, oh
Breaking up is hard to do
Let's start brand new
It's what I'm longing to do, to do
To make a world with you, with you
To make a world with you
Let's start brand new
'Cause breaking up is hard to do
I wanna start brand new
'Cause breaking up is hard to do
