And so my love we've reached the end

We'll go our separate ways

And I'll always be your friend

Baby it's time to say goodbye

Who can say just what went wrong

It couldn't last

I guess we knew it all along

And now I can't stand to see you cry

Oh it's hard to say you're sorry

When you love someone completely

And I know there's no more

tears that I can cry

Yes it's hard to say goodbye

When the river runs dry

You take the best of me with you

I wish you happiness

In everything you do

Baby it's time to walk away

Now I must be the lonely one

My hands are tied

And they can never be undone

And there's nothing left that I can say

Oh it's hard to say you're sorry

When you love someone completely

And I know there's no more

tears that I can cry

Yes it's hard to say goodbye

When the river runs dry

There's one more sacrifice to make

'Cos I must leave you now

Before my heart will break

So baby it's time to say goodbye

Oh it's hard to say you're sorry

When you love someone completely

And I know there's no more

tears that I can cry

Yes it's hard to say goodbye

When the river runs dry

Oh...., oh..., oh...
