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.   And time goes so fast and new love starts so slow.   I could have loved in wain for a thousand years,   I have to let her go.   Hard woman to please, yes you are.   Hard waman,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.
