[Verse 1: Erykah Badu]
It's hard to be with you
Too hard, that's what she said
So long, that's what she said
So long
I'm through, I've closed the door
Don't come, that's what she said

[Chorus 1: Erykah Badu]
'Cause we're through
But you keep coming back
So hard, so strong

[Verse 2: Erykah Badu]
It's hard to be with you
Too hard, that's what she said
So long, that's what she said
So long
I'm through, I've closed the door
Don't come, that's what she said
So long, that's what she said
So long
[Chorus 2: Erykah Badu]
'Cause we're through
But you keep coming back
So hard, so strong
So long, that's what she said
So long
So long

[Bridge: Erykah Badu]
It's hard, too hard
So long, don't come
We're through, I'm done
So long, so long
