It's hard to stay,
It's hard to look into your eyes
When I say I'm leaving.
I can't be sure,
But I think I made up my mind,
Although your heart is bleeding.
I wish the only one I had to be was me
For you to see this clearly.
I wish the only thing I had to do was to
Hold my arms around you.
So long, so hard,
Until you understand.
So long, so hard,
Until you understand.
And somehow I feel I'm pulling away your ground
Before i've even started.
To realise my words have caught you by surprise
Makes it even harder.
I wish there was a way
To make you read the signs
I'm bringing you this evening.
I wish the only thing I had to do was to
Hold my arms around you.
So long, so hard,
Until you understand.
So long, so hard,
Until you understand.
