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've made up my mind, 

Although your heart is bleeding.

I wish the only one I had to be was me,

For you to see it as clearly.

I wish the only thing I had to do was to,

Hold my arms around you.



So long, so hard,

Until you'd understand.

So long, so hard, 

Until you'd understand



I somehow feel like I'm pulling away your ground, 

Before I've even started.

To realise my words that 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'd understand.

So long, so hard, 

Until you'd understand
