If I'd Been the One

I've been lost inside Empty space in my heart And some things never change, oh How it hurts me and How it's tearin' me apart And it just goes on and on Can you read my mind? Take a good look at my face Could you take some time Just to stand here in my place? What if I'd been the one to say goodbye, goodbye Could you smile when inside you just wanna cry, look inside Can you read my mind, oh-oh When I hear your name Feels so cold deep inside Still it's hard to explain, oh What your love meant to me They say time will heal the pain But it just goes on forever Can you read my mind? Have you closed the door on love? Can you be so blind? Did you think I'd just give up? What if I'd been the one to say goodbye, goodbye Could you smile when inside you just wanna cry, wanna cry What if I'd been the one to say goodbye, goodbye Could you smile when it hurts so deep inside? And it never fades away Fade away Time can't erase the reasons why Count my mistakes and the heartaches Since you said goodbye What if I'd been the one to say goodbye, goodbye Could you smile when inside you just wanna cry, wanna cry What if I'd been the one to say goodbye, goodbye Could you smile when it hurts so deep inside And it never fades away Never fades away No, it don't fade away
