the calling - could it be any harder lyrics

you left me with goodbye and open arms
a cut so deep i don't deserve
you were always invincible in my eyes
the only thing against us now is time

[chorus:]
could it be any harder to say goodbye and without you,
could it be any harder to watch you go, to face what's true
if i only had one more day

i lie down and blind myself with laughter
a quick fix of hope is what i'm needing
and now i wish that i could turn back the hours
but i know i just don't have the power

[chorus]
i'd jump at the chance
we'd drink and we'd dance
and i'd listen close to your every word,
as if its your last, i know its your last,
cause today, oh, you're gone

[chorus]

like sand on my feet
the smell of sweet perfume
you stick to me forever,baby
and i wish you didn't go,
i wish you didn't go
i wish you didn't go away
to touch you again,
with life in your hands
it couldn't be any harder
