The Hardest Part
Coldplay (cover) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And the hardest part
Was letting go, not taking part
Was the hardest part

And the strangest thing
Was waiting for that bell to ring
It was the strangest start
I could feel it go down
Bittersweet I could taste in my mouth
Silver lining the cloud
Oh and I
I wish that I could work it out

And the hardest part
Was letting go, not taking part
You really broke my heart, oh

And I tried to sing
But I couldn't think of anything
And that was the hardest part, oh

I could feel it go down
You left the sweetest taste in my mouth
You're silver lining the clouds
Oh and I
Oh and I
I wonder what it's all about
I wonder what it's all about

Everything I know is wrong
Everything I do, it's just comes undone
And everything is torn apart

Oh and it's the hardest part
That's the hardest part




Yeah that's the hardest part
That's the hardest part

Overall Meaning

The lyrics highlight the difficult feelings associated with letting go of someone and the pain that comes with holding onto memories of past moments. The first verse talks about how letting go and not taking part in the relationship is the hardest part. The singer wishes they could work it out, but ultimately recognizes that moving on may be the best decision for both parties. The strange start and waiting for the bell to ring could symbolize the beginning of the end of the relationship or the start of the healing process.


The chorus repeats the theme of the hardest part being to let go and not take part in the relationship. The second verse goes deeper into the pain of heartbreak and the struggle to express oneself after a breakup. The singer feels like everything they do just comes undone, and they cannot think of anything to say or sing. The bridge questions the purpose of everything and what it's all about. The song ends with a poignant reminder that the hardest part is moving on and letting go, despite the pain that may come with it.
