That Was the Easy Part

John Jarrard, Wendell Mobley

[Verse 1]
I could barely breathe when you told me goodbye
Thought my knees would go as you walked down the drive
It was I could do to hold back the tears
I whispered I love you, guess you didn't hear
As I watched you drive away, I thought I'd die

[Chorus]
And that was the easy part, as bad as it was
Your goodbye didn't torture me like your being gone does
Facing my life alone is where it really gets hard
Watching you leave tore a hole deep in me
And that was the easy part

[Verse 2]
She'll be back, that's what I told myself
But the more I lied, the less it seemed to help
If you know how a man who's about to drown
Feels the third time he goes down
Then you know how I was feeling when you left

[Chorus]
And that was the easy part, as bad as it was
Your goodbye didn't torture me like your being gone does
Facing my life alone is where it really gets hard
Watching you leave tore a hole deep in me
And that was the easy part

[Refrain]
Facing my life alone is where it really gets hard
Watching you leave tore a hole deep in me
That was the easy part
