Lyrics: D. Hall, J. Oates
  Music: D. Hall, J. Oates, N. Jason
    (Don't wanna face it but I know that it's time to go home no)
  (I cannot say what I want to say when we're alone)
  I've got to leave but I want to stay
  Where you are is so far from the U S of A
  When we're more than half a world (half a world away)
  It's so hard (so hard) to be (to be) in love (in love) with you
  It's so hard (so hard) to be (to be) in love (in love) with you
  It's so hard (so hard) to be (to be) in love (in love) with you
  Hard to (be in love with you)
    (Operator International 011, oh)
  (Put your love on the line put your ear to the phone)
  Maybe it's no longer than a night and a day
  But where you are is so far from the U S of A
  And it ain't so easy, easy on the heart
  It's so hard (so hard) to be (to be) in love (in love) with you
  It's so hard (so hard) to be (to be) in love (in love)
  with you
  It's so hard (so hard) to be (to be) in love (in love)
  with you
  Hard to (be in love with you)
    Oh maybe it's no longer than a night and a day
  But where you are is so far from the U S of A
  And it ain't so easy (easy on the heart)
  It's so hard (so hard) to be (to be) in love (in love) with you
  It's so hard (so hard) to be (to be) in love (in love)
  with you
  It's so hard (so hard) to be (to be) in love (in love)
  with you
  It's so hard (so hard) to be (to be)
