The Hardest Thing - 98º

We both know that I shouldn’t be here

This is wrong

And, baby, it’s killing me, it’s killing you

Both of us trying to be strong

I’ve got somewhere else to be

Promises to keep

Someone else who loves me

And trusts me fast asleep

I’ve made up my mind

There is no turning back

She’s been good to me

And she deserves better than that

It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do

To look you in the eye, and tell you I don’t love you

It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to lie

To show no emotion when you start to cry

I can’t let you see what you mean to me

When my hands are tied and my heart’s not free

We’re not meant to be

It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do

To turn around and walk away pretending I don’t love you

I know that we’ll meet again

Fate has a place and time

So you can get on with your life

I’ve got to be cruel to be kind

Like Dr. Zhivago

All my love I’ll be sending

And you will never know

Cause there can be no happy ending

Maybe another time, another day

As much as I want to, I can’t stay
