Charles Steele - What Hurts The Most Lyrics

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 BEING SO CLOSE,
AND HAVING SO MUCH TO SAY,
AND WATCHING YOU WALK AWAY,
AND NEVER KNOWIN',
WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN,
NOT SEEIN' THAT LOVING YOU,
THAT'S WHAT I WAS TRYING TO DO,

IT'S HARD TO DEAL WITH THE PAIN,
OF LOSING YOU EVERYWHERE I GO,
BUT I'M DOING 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'VE LEFT UNSPOKEN,

WHAT HURTS THE MOST,
WAS BEING SO CLOSE,
AND HAVING SO MUCH TO SAY,
AND WATCHING YOU WALK AWAY,
AND NEVER KNOWIN',
WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN,
NOT SEEIN' THAT LOVING YOU,
THAT'S WHAT I WAS TRYING TO DO,

OHHHH......
YEAAA.......

WHAT HURTS THE MOST,
WAS BEING SO CLOSE,
AND HAVING SO MUCH TO SAY,
AND WATCHING YOU WALK AWAY,
AND NEVER KNOWIN',
WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN,
NOT SEEIN' THAT LOVING YOU,
THAT'S WHAT I WAS TRYING TO DO,

NOT SEEIN' THAT LOVING YOU,
THAT'S WHAT I WAS TRYING TO DO,

OHHHH..
YEA......
