I loved the way you looked at me with your blue eyes, 
The way you walked into a room, 
I loved to sit with you and watch the starry skies, 
And the rising of the moon. 

CHORUS 1: 
Its hard living here with out you, 
Its hard loving things about you, 
Its so hard. 

I remember dancing with you in the rain, 
The way you held on tight, 
And I remember how you called my name, 
The way you filled my nights. 

CHORUS 2: 
Its hard living here with out you, 
Its hard loving things about you, 
Its hard knowing you're forgetting me, 
Its hard and it just keeps on getting worse, 
Its so hard. 

BRIDGE: 
Why must I recall so much, 
Wish I could just forget, 
I close my eyes I see your face, 
But you're gone without a trace... 

CHORUS 2: 
Its hard living here with out you, 
Its hard loving things about you, 
Its hard knowing you're forgetting me, 
Its hard and it just keeps on getting worse, 
Its so hard. 
 

My parting gift is today this is the present 
Wrapped in ribbons of realistic views 
Been asleep for so long I forgot I knew 
I didn't have to be awake to see right through 
This self-induced coma since I met you 

I woke up this morning doing way better than you 
Rather wake up baby then just come to 
Awareness came from some where in between 
Slipping out of a trance right into this scene 

Laughing out loud like its some kind of game 
When you swore on the bible it burst into flames 
You looked at me eyes glaring with blame 
Asking me why things cant stay the same 
Leaving I said nothing is constant but change 

I woke up this morning doing way better than you 
Rather wake up baby then just come to 
You can't say your sorry, its too late 
Sleeping Beauty woke up, yeah she's awake 
 

A father called his grown son to the side of his deathbed 
A pencil in his hand, he smoothed his paper out and said 
"I'll take along a message to the loved ones that you've missed 
Tell me who, and I will make a list" 

The son said,"You'll see Mama standing just inside the gate 
Whisper that I'll see her when I meet my final fate 
Tell her that I miss her smile and tender mother's kiss 
That is why I want her on your list 

"Tell my dear old Grandma that I'll see her by and by 
Tell her that I'm sorry that we never said goodbye 
Make sure that she knows her quiet strength is sorely missed 
Add my sweet grandmother to the list 

"Daddy, when you look upon the wondrous face of Christ 
Thank Him for the good things I've been given in my life 
Tell Him that without Him I would surely not exist 
And have Him bless the people on your list" 

The father said, "I love you, son" and laid his pencil down 
Drew his final breath and passed away without a sound 
And when the man was buried, one detail could not be missed 
For in his withered hand he held The List
