The single saddest thing that I ever heard you say Was on the day I told you I had to go away You said "Darling baby please, if you really mean to leave Can't I just hold you a little while longer?" And the single hardest thing I ever had to do Was take your arms from 'round me and walk away from you And I know I shouldn't have kissed you as a I left Darling I should have been stronger Not with a bang but with a whimper It wasn't hard, it was kind of simple Three short steps from your bed to your door Darling, I can't look you in the eyes now and tell you I'm sure If I love you anymore I did my very best, I've given you these years Of love and understanding, telephone calls and tears But now the little things you do that used to make me love you Now just cramp my heart a little and let it slip And we've met this sorry end from a picture perfect start The romance and the running down to disconnected hearts Of two people sad and free, who know they used to be More than just a pair of sinking ships Not with a bang but with a whimper It wasn't hard, it was kind of simple Three short steps from your bed to your door Darling, I can't look you in the eyes now and tell you I'm sure If I love you anymore I'm not drinking any more But I'm then I'm not drinking any less I can't do this anymore Oh you know I did my best Oh my darling, I don't love you anymore I don't love you anymore I don't love you anymore I don't love you anymore I don't love you anymore
