The hardest thing that I’ve ever done
Was saying goodbye to you,
Watching you stand there alone
As I drove away.
Then when I looked back
And you waved goodbye,
I just about changed my mind,
But I wanted to let you know
I’ll be back someday.
Yes, I tell myself that it won’t be long
Until I’m back there with you.
Though I hurt inside, I must be strong.
Darling, what else can I do?
I’m so in love with you.
These days come and go
When I’m not with you,
It’s more than my heart can stand.
So I hope and pray that soon
I’ll be there with you.
When I go to sleep
I’m dreaming of you
And the way that you held me close,
But when I wake up, I’m alone
And I want to cry.
