The 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 that I've ever known or that I'll ever know Was to see your love a dying and to have to watch it dying And I couldn't stand to watch you falling out of love with me It's hurtin' 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 kept losing And I couldn't stay to 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 I'm crying now but still it's better I left while love was still alive But it was dying and I'd rather I didn't have to watch it die
FALLING OUT OF LOVE WITH ME Writer Dolly Parton
The 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 that I've ever known or that I'll ever know Was to see your love a dying and to have to watch it dying And I couldn't stand to watch you falling out of love with me It's hurtin' 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 kept losing And I couldn't stay to 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 I'm crying now but still it's better I left while love was still alive But it was dying and I'd rather I didn't have to watch it die
