"The Hardest Thing (98°'s Version)" lyrics
98° Lyrics
Yeah
Yeah, yeah
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye, yeah
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye
Oh, yeah
Yeah, yeah
We both know that I shouldn't be here
This is wrong
And, baby, it's killing me, it's killing you
Both of us trying to be strong
I've got somewhere else to be
Promises to keep
Someone else who loves me
And trusts me fast asleep
Yeah, yeah
I've made up my mind
There is no turning back
She's been good to me
And she deserves better than that
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do
To look you in the eye, and tell you I don't love you
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to lie
To show no emotion when you start to cry
Please, don't cry
I can't let you see what you mean to me
When my hands are tied and my heart's not free
We're not meant to be
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do
Oh-oh
To turn around and walk away, pretending I don't love you
We will meet again
Fate has a place and time
Place and time
So you can get on with your life
Get on with your life
I've got to be cruel to be kind
To be kind
Like Dr. Zhivago
All my love, I'll be sending
Yeah
And you will never know
Know
'Cause there can be no happy ending
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do
Oh
To look you in the eye, and tell you I don't love you
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to lie
To show no emotion when you start to cry
I can't let you see what you mean to me
When my hands are tied and my heart's not free
We're not meant to be, oh
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do
Yes, it is
To turn around and walk away pretending I don't love you
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye
Maybe another time, another day
And you know I can't do it, girl
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye
Much as I want to, I can't stay
Oh-oh-oh
I've made up my mind
There is no turning back
She's been good to me
And she deserves better than that
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do
Yeah, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
To look you in the eye, and tell you I don't love you
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to lie
To show no emotion
Oh no
When you start to cry
Oh, baby, yeah
I can't let you see what you mean to me
When my hands are tied and my heart's not free
We're not meant to be, oh
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do
Oh-oh
To turn around and walk away, pretending I don't love you
You know I can't do it, girl
Living a lie
Oh yeah
What can I do?
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye, yeah
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye, yeah
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye
What to do?
You know I can't do it, girl
Yeah, yeah
Living a lie
Yeah, yeah
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye, yeah
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye
Oh, yeah
Yeah, yeah
We both know that I shouldn't be here
This is wrong
And, baby, it's killing me, it's killing you
Both of us trying to be strong

It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do
To look you in the eye, and tell you I don't love you
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to lie
