What Hurts the Most - Original Mix

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then
And just let them out

I'm not afraid to cry
Every once in a while even though goin' on
With you gone still upsets me

There are days
Every now and again I pretend I'm okay
But that's not what gets me

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away

Never knowing
What could have been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do

It's hard to deal with the pain
Of losing you everywhere I go
But I'm doin' it

It's hard to force that smile when I
See our old friends and I'm alone
Still harder

Gettin' up, gettin' dressed
Livin' with this regret
But I know if I could do it over

I would trade, give away all the words
That I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away

Never knowing
What could have been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do

I'm not afraid to cry
Every once in a while even though goin' on
With you gone still upsets me

There are days
Every now and again
I pretend I'm okay
But that's not what gets me

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away

Never knowing
What could have been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away

Never knowing
What could have been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do
