The Hardest Thing
Last night we had a quarrel
We went to bed so mad
Each had to get up early
The morning was quite sad
I never meant to say that
I know you didn’t, too
With hopes to reconcile
Just know that I love you
Yeah darling…
It couldn’t be more true
That’s why
Leaving you
Is the hardest thing to do
Each morning when we go to work
A piece of me, it goes with you
I cannot wait to get back home
To do those things we do
That’s why
Leaving you
Is the hardest thing to do
I hope tonight we’re civil
We listen and we learn
Together, we’ll get past this
Each others trust, we’ll earn
So, then we can retire
To the bedroom that we share
Lie within each others arms
And show how much we care
Yeah darling…
It couldn’t be more true
That’s why
Leaving you
Is the hardest thing to do
Each morning when we go to work
A piece of me, it goes with you
I cannot wait to get back home
To do those things we do
That’s why
Leaving you
Is the hardest thing to do
And when my work’s over
I will come back to you
