The Hardest Part

I was so amazed with your improvement
I thought everything was finally going to be okay
Until that one day came around
I saw you doing it again
You don't understand how much it hurts
I don't know how I could ever love you
Like I did yesterday.

As long seconds carry on
Your life becomes more useless
Kissing your dreams good bye
You start to fall out of my reach
And then you'll be gone
I don't know how I could ever love you
Like I did yesterday.

Time's almost up
Reality finally hit me
I turn away so I don't have to watch
Your pain is killing me bit by bit
I don't want you to go
But that's where you're headed
I don't know how I could ever love you
Like I did yesterday.

I just wish you could know
That the hardest part of this
Is seeing you go
Leaving me behind
In the shadows.
