Verse 1: Joe]
If I had the choice to wake up next to someone
Of course it would be you
When I close my eyes
And blow out the candles
I'm wishing we wasn't through
You should be here with me, baby
To miss I, miss all I've had, lately
To sit and think about what I could've done differently

[Hook: Joe]
Hard to hang with friends
(When everybody knows you)
Can't go to church
(When everybody loves you)
And it's crushing me
(When I call and can't get through
Oh, oh, oh)
All your guy friends
(Couldn't wait for us to break up)
And they're making sure
(We don't get a chance to make up)
I just wanna say I'm sorry
I don't know what got into me

[Chorus: Joe]
If it's hell I gotta pay
Then I'll go through the fire
God knows I ain't want you to leave
Don't know what else I can say
I didn't even like her
I'm just trying to make you see
It's not you, girl it's me

[Verse 2: Joe]
Things I use to hate about you
Now I love, yeah
Things that use to drive you crazy
I've given up, Oh
You then changed my whole life, baby
How you leave right after you saved me?
And I hope you don't expect me
To go on without you

[Hook: Joe]
Hard to hang with friends
(When everybody knows you)
Can't go to church
(When everybody loves you)
And it's crushing me
(When I call and can't get through
Oh, oh, oh)
All your guy friends
(Couldn't wait for us to break up)
And they're making sure
(We don't get a chance to make up)
I just wanna say I'm sorry
I don't know what got into me

[Chorus: Joe]
If it's hell I gotta pay
Then I'll go through the fire
God knows I ain't want you to leave
Don't know what else I can say
I didn't even like her
I'm just trying to make you see
It's not you, girl it's me

[Verse 3: Joe]
Can't believe I made a fool of myself
When all you did was give me love
But it wasn't enough
You're not to blame
I'm the one that did you wrong
And it's really killing me
What I made you think, Oh

[Chorus: Joe]
If it's hell I gotta pay
Then I'll go through the fire
God knows I ain't want you to leave
Don't know what else I can say
I didn't even like her
I'm just trying to make you see
It's not you, girl it's me

If it's hell I gotta pay
