Lyrics of Falling out of love with me

(dolly parton)

The hardest thing i've done or that i'll ever do
Was to just walk off and leave you
But i knew i had to leave you
'cause i couldn't stay and watch you
Falling out of love with me
The worst pain that i've ever known
Or that i'll ever know
Was to see your love-a-dying
And to have to watch it dying
And i couldn't stand to watch you
Falling out of love with me

I'm hurting now, but still it's better
I left while love was still alive
It was dying and i'd rather
I didn't have to watch it die

The loneliest i've ever been
Or that i'll ever be
Now that i'm without you
But i couldn't stand to watch you
Falling out of love with me

I'm crying now, but still it's better
I left while love was still alive
It was dying and i'd rather
I didn't have to watch it die
