[Verse 1]
If I don't leave, how will you see?
All  the better love that you deserve without me
If  I don't go, how will you know?
You'll find space to breathe and time to heal tomorrow

[Pre-Chorus]
I hope time, time will tell the truth
Time  I'll give to you

[Chorus]
The  hardest word is goodbye
So make it easy, don't cry
I'll  love you for my whole life
The hardest word is goodbye

[Verse 2]
I know it hurts, screaming "don't go"
But I promise you your heart won't stay hollow
I'll  always hope that you'll move on
And you'll find a love that gives you me and more

[Pre-Chorus]
Time, oh, time will tell the truth
So time I'll give to you
[Chorus]
The hardest word is goodbye
So make it easy, don't cry
I'll love you for my whole life
The hardest word is goodbye

[Bridge]
You're so much stronger than me
You're so much stronger now
You don't need me now
You don't need me now, oh
You're so much braver than me
You're so much braver now
You don't need me now, oh

[Chorus]
The hardest word is goodbye, oh yeah
So make it easy, don't cry
I'll love you for my whole life, oh yeah
The hardest word is goodbye
The hardest word is goodbye
