Lyrics

  
Hardest thing I?ve ever done, or that I?ll ever do  
Was to just walk off and leave you, but I knew I had to leave you  
Cause I couldn?t stay and watch you falling out of love with me  
The worst pain I?ve ever known, or that I?ll ever know  
Was to see your love a dying, and I have to watch it dying  
And I couldn?t stand to watch you falling out of love with me  
  
It?s hurting now but still it?s better, I left while love was still alive  
It was dying and I?d rather, I didn?t have to watch it die  
  
The deepest hurt I?ve ever felt, or that I?ll ever feel  
Was to know that I was losing, and I tried but I keep losing  
And I couldn?t stay and watch you falling out of love with me  
  
The loneliest I?ve ever been, or that I?ll ever be  
Is now that I?m without you, and I feel so lost without you  
But I couldn?t stay and watch you falling out of love with me  
  
It?s hurting now but still it?s better, I left while love was still alive  
It was dying and I?d rather, I didn?t have to watch it die  
It was dying and I?d rather, I didn?t have to watch it die
