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
