What Hurts the Most (Extended Mix)

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

What hurts the most was being so close

And having so much to say (Much to say)

And watching you walk away (Walk away)

Never knowing what could have been

And not seeing that loving you

Is what I was trying to do

[Verse 2]

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 getting up, getting dressed, living 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

[Chorus]

What hurts the most was being so close

And having so much to say (Much to say)

And watching you walk away (Walk away)

Never knowing what could have been

And not seeing that loving you

Is what I was trying to do

Oh, oh

Hey, hey

[Bridge]

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

[Chorus]

What hurts the most was being so close

And having so much to say (Much to say)

And watching you walk away (Walk away)

Never knowing what could have been

And not seeing that loving you

Is what I was trying to do

What hurts the most (What hurts the most was)

Was being so close

And having so much to say (Much to say)

And watching you walk away (Walk away)

Never knowing what could have been

And not seeing that loving you

Is what I was trying to do
