[Intro]
Da-dooby-down, dooby-doo-down-down
Comma-comma-down, dooby-doo-down-down
Comma-comma-down, dooby-doo-down-down
Breaking up is hard to do

[Verse]
Don't take your love away from me
Don't you leave my heart in misery
If you go, then I'll be blue
'Cause breakin' up is hard to do
Remember when you held me tight
And you kissed me all through the night
Think of all that we've been through
And breakin' up is hard to do

[Chorus]
They say that breakin' up is hard to do
Now I know, I know that it's true
Don't say that this is the end
Instead of breakin' up I wish that
We were makin' up again

[Post-Chorus]
I beg of you don't say goodbye
Can't we give our love another try?
Come on, baby, let's start anew
'Cause breakin' up is hard to do
[Chorus]
(They say that breaking up is hard to do)
Now I know, I know that it's true
(Don't say that this is the end)
Instead of breakin' up I wish that
We were makin' up again

[Post-Chorus]
I beg of you don't say goodbye
Can't we give our love another try?
Come on, baby, let's start anew
'Cause breakin' up is hard to do

[Outro]
Down, dooby-doo-down-down
Comma-comma-down, dooby-doo-down-down
Comma-comma-down, dooby-doo-down-down
Comma-comma-down, dooby-doo-down-down
