I've been lost inside, empty space in my heart
And some things never change, no
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 wanna 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
Chorus:
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

Review about If I'd Been the One Get out of my head! | Reviewer: Mark | 3/1/2008
I heard this song on my wife's IPOD on a flight from LA to Frankfurt. I've been home now for 3 days and I can't get it out of my mind, so I am going to learn to play it, sing it (probably thrash it) and accept that I stumbled onto a great song.
liked this song in past...love it now... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/10/2007
When I first heard it and saw the video as a kid (had Bruce Springsteen's wife at the time in the vid), I liked it...now I love it! Every time I go through my rock-n-roll list of songs on my computer/mp3, if it even catches my eye, I choose it and listen to it 2 or 3 times....
Super Super good song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/3/2007
