Lyrics

When you turn and you walk through that door
It hurts me so, said it hurts me so
When you look at me and you say goodbye
You make me cry, said you make me cry
So listen to me, what I say to you
Breaking up is hard to do
Breaking up is hard to do
It hurts me so, said it hurts me so
When you look at me and you say goodbye
You make me cry, cry said you make me cry
My darling, I can not let you go now
For my love is so strong, my love is so, so strong now
My love is so strong now
So listen to me while I say to you
Breaking up is hard to do (My darling)
Breaking up is hard to do
