If I'd Been the One

I've been lost inside
Empty space in my heart
And some thing 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 the 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 want to cry?
Look inside
Can you read my mind?
Oh, oh
When i hear your name
Feel 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 want to cry?
Want to 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 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 want to cry?
Want to 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.....
