My leading lady is gone   And it’s so hard to go on   Without the part she played   My life’s just an empty stage.      She’s a hard act to follow   I thought I’d find somebody by now   She’s a hard act to follow   Her leavin’ brought the whole house down.      She was so right for the part   The way she fit into my heart   After the love she gave   Who could ever take her place?      She’s a hard act to follow   I thought I’d find somebody by now   She’s a hard act to follow   Her leavin’ brought the whole house down.      She’s a hard act to follow   I thought I’d find somebody by now   She’s a hard act to follow   Her leavin’ brought the whole house down...
