A Hard Act To Follow Lyrics by Keith Whitley

The Essential Keith Whitley

1984

My leading lady is gone
And it's so hard to go on
Without the part she played
My life's just an empty stage
She's a hard act to follow
I thought I'd find somebody by now
She's a hard act to follow
Her leavin' brought the whole house down
She was so right for the part
The way she fit into my heart
After the love she gave
Who could ever take her place?
She's a hard act to follow
I thought I'd find somebody by now
She's a hard act to follow
Her leavin' brought the whole house down
She's a hard act to follow
I thought I'd find somebody by now
She's a hard act to follow
Her leavin' brought the whole house down..
