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 'EM 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 BEIN' SO CLOSE
AND HAVIN' SO MUCH TO SAY
AND WATCHIN' YOU WALK AWAY
AND NEVER KNOWIN'
WHAT COULD'VE BEEN
AND NOT SEEIN' THAT LOVIN' YOU
IS WHAT I WAS TRYIN' TO DO
IT'S HARD TO DEAL WITH
THE PAIN OF LOSIN' 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
IS BEIN' SO CLOSE
AND HAVIN' SO MUCH TO SAY
AND WATCHIN' YOU WALK AWAY
AND NEVER KNOWIN'
WHAT COULD'VE BEEN
AND NOT SEEIN' THAT LOVIN' YOU
IS WHAT I WAS TRYIN' TO DO
OH...
WELL, HEY... YEAH...
WHAT HURTS THE MOST
WAS BEIN' SO CLOSE
AND HAVIN' SO MUCH TO SAY
AND WATCHIN' YOU WALK AWAY
AND NEVER KNOWIN'
WHAT COULD'VE BEEN
AND NOT SEEIN' THAT LOVIN' YOU
IS WHAT I WAS TRYIN' TO DO
THAT'S WHAT
I WAS TRYING TO DO
OOH.....
