Breaking Up is Hard to Do
Heartache's Melody: The Challenge of Parting Ways
Lyrics
You tell me that you're leavin'
You communicate the intention to leave
I can't believe it's true!
Expressing disbelief in the truth of the departure
Girl, there's just no livin' without you
Conveying the difficulty of living without the girl
Don't take your love away from me
Pleading not to withdraw love
Don't you leave my heart in misery
Requesting not to cause heartache
'Cause if you go, then I'll be blue
Anticipating sadness if the departure occurs
Breakin' up is hard to do
Stating the challenge of going through a breakup
Remember when you held me tight
Recalling a moment of intimacy and closeness
And you kissed me all through the night
Reflecting on romantic moments shared through kisses
Think of all that we been through
Considering the history and experiences together
And breakin' up is hard to do
Reiterating the difficulty of breaking up
They say that breakin' up is hard to do
Quoting a common saying about the challenges of breaking up
Now I know, I know that it's true
Acknowledging the truth in the saying
Don't say that this is the end
Rejecting the idea that this is the definitive end
Instead of breakin' up I wish that
Expressing a desire for reconciliation instead of separation
We were makin' up again
Wishing for the opportunity to make amends
I beg of you don't say goodbye
Pleading not to say goodbye
Can't we give our love just one more try?
Suggesting a chance to revive the love
Come on baby, let's start anew
Encouraging a fresh start together
Breakin' up is hard to do
Reiterating the difficulty of going through a breakup
