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 'till 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
