Break it to me gently

Let me down the easy way

Make me feel you still love me

If it's just, just for one more day

Break it to me gently

So my tears, my tears won't fall too fast

If you must go then go slowly

Let me love you 'til the last

The love we've shared, oh so long

It's a teary part of me

If you must take your love away

Take it gradually

And break it to me gently, give me time

Oh, give me a little time to ease the pain

If you must go then go slowly

'Cause I'll never love again

If you must take your love away

Take it gradually

And break it to me gently, give me time

Oh, give me a little time to ease the pain

Love me just a little longer

'Cause I'll never, never love again

'Cause I'll never, no, never love again, ooh
