The TV is on but I’m not really watching

I’m just staring at it when I’m not – wailing and weeping

With tears all over my face, I can’t put it in words

What the essential thing is, I’m keeping from daylight

I can’t put it in words

But I wish I knew – How to fall out

How to fall out of love with you

 

I’m in love with the idea of love

I don’t really know what it means

I don’t know how; will you show me how

I don’t know how to feel

 

I know what it’s not; it’s not boom, boom, bye

Something so over so quickly

I can’t do that; I won’t even try

I do it the hard way

 

In and out of my life like a moving shadow

You leave every time that you promise to stay

You keep a packed bag in the room, down the hall

Behind the door

And you come and you go, while deep inside me I know

There’ll come a time you won’t come anymore

But I wish I knew – How to fall out

How to fall out of love with you

 

I know what it’s not; it’s not boom, boom, bye

Something so over so quickly

I can’t do that; I won’t even try

I do it the hard way – Do it the hard way

Let’s do it the hard way (nothing easy)

Do it the hard way (why take it easy)

When we can do it the hard way
