The Hardest Part

The hardest part of loving you
Are the moments in-between
When you fade from my view
And every place we’ve been
And the hardest part of the morning
Is knowing the night with you
Is simply a prelude to the dawning
When you fade into the blue…….
For the hardest part of our laughter
Is the silence in between
And wondering for-ever after
Oh, what might have been
And the hardest part of loving you
Is simply letting go
Knowing there’s nothing we can do
To pause time’s ebb and flow
As the minutes melt into hours…..
The hours that stretch between
You and I in the hardest part
Of wondering what could have been
