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 such a big 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

---- Instrumental Interlude ----

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 
Nooooo, never love again
Whooooooa
