There's no sense in holding on When the feeling in your heart has gone You don't know right from wrong or where to turn Something in her eyes is new, will treat you High and will be gone, don't go, will you stay? I've been for less then, you will know You better go home For it's not easy It's not easy to say goodnight It's not easy It's not easy to face the light There's no sense in hanging 'round When the tears are washed on the curb down You ask her "Now do you remember?" She won't say and you go You feel so lonely on your own You try to, to reach her on the telephone Do you know you're putting off the evil date? You better go home For it's not easy It's not easy to say goodnight It's not easy It's not easy to face the light There was a time for feeling strong Now it's far too late the magic's gone You had your chance to leave her, still you stalled, makes you wonder I'm staring out the empty lot Should I leave an open shodai car Loves you boy, keep walking through that old man door far away For it's not easy It's not easy to say goodnight It's not easy It's not easy to face the light It's not easy It's not easy to say goodnight For it's not easy to face the light
