[Intro]
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Mmm-hmm, oh (Ba-doo-ba, ba-doo-ba)
[Verse 1]
There are tears in your eyes
Love has just said goodbye
How the pain tortures you
Breakin' your heart in two
[Chorus]
(Ooh) Don't take it so hard
(Ooh) No, don't take it so hard
[Verse 2]
Wipe the tears from your face
Put a smile in their place
Love is only a game
Win or lose, it's the same
[Chorus]
Ooh, don't take it so hard, no, no, no, no, baby
(Ooh, don't take it, baby, don't you take it)
[Bridge]
(Now) Time has a way
Of making things right
It's so foolish to cry because he said goodbye
Your world's caving in (Caving in), you feel you've reached your end
[Verse 3]
Try to make a new start
Though your dreams fall apart
Go ahead, see it through
Face what's ahead of you
[Chorus]
Don't (Don't take it so hard), no, no, no
(Ooh, don't take it so hard) Ooh, don't take it so hard
[Break]
(Whoo-hoo) Love (Whoo-hoo)
(Whoo-hoo, whoo-hoo)
(Whoo-hoo, whoo-hoo) Oh baby
(Whoo-hoo, whoo-hoo) Ooh, ooh
[Verse 4]
Wipe the tears from your face, baby
The hurt that time will erase
[Chorus]
Ooh, don't take it so hard, no, no, no, now listen, baby
(Ooh, don't take it, baby, don't you take it)
[Bridge]
Ooh
('Cause time has a way) Time has a way
(Of making things right) Making everything right
It's foolish to cry because he said goodbye
Your world's caving in, you feel you've reached your end
[Chorus]
(Don't take it so hard) No, no, no, no
(Don't take it so hard) Oh, now listen, baby
(Don't take it so hard) I'll be standin' by
(Don't take it, baby, don't you take it) No, no, no, oh
(Don't take it so hard) Baby, baby, baby
(Don't take it so hard) Oh, don't take it so hard now, woman, now
