I could barely breathe when you told me goodbye
|
Thought my knees would go as you walked down the drive
|
It was I could do to hold back the tears
|
I whispered "I love you" guess you didn't hear
|
As I watched you drive away
|
I thought I'd die
|
|
And that was the easy part
|
As bad as it was
|
Your goodbye didn't torture me
|
Like your being gone does
|
Facing my life alone
|
Is where it really gets hard
|
Watching you leave
|
Bore a hole deep in me
|
And that was the easy part
|
|
"She'll be back"
|
That's what I told myself
|
But the more I lied
|
The less it seemed to help
|
|
If you know how a man whose about to drown
|
Feels the 3rd time he goes down
|
Then you know how I was feeling
|
The day you left
|
|
And that was the easy part
|
As bad as it was
|
Your goodbye didn't torture me
|
Like your being gone does
|
|
Facing my life alone
|
Is where it really gets hard
|
Watching you leave
|
Bore a hole deep in me
|
That was the easy part
|
|
Facing my life alone
|
Is where it really gets hard
|
Watching you leave
|
Bore a hole deep in me
|
That was the easy part
|
