I would trade, give away, all the words that I saved in my heart that I left unspoken.

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few 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
Every now and again I pretend that I'm okay
But that's not what gets me.

- "What Hurts The Most" by Rascal Flatts

I could really relate with this song. It's funny how I stumbled upon it.

My friend Nica introduced me to this song by Cascada, Everytime We Touch; and I instantly loved it and so I searched for other songs.
So I downloaded..

• Everytime We Touch (Slow)
• What Hurts The Most
• One More Night
  
• Ready For Love

What struck me about the song was the lyrics, so sad and speaks of heartbreak.

And then last week, I was watching America's Got Talent season 2, and it was already the Final 4 episode.
The 4 finalists were already called out: Cas Haley, Butterscotch, and Terry Fader, and Julienne Irwin, and they all had to perform the judge's choice first.

And it just so happened that Julienne's judge's choice performance was What Hurts The Most by Rascal Flatts.

The next day, I downloaded the Rascal Flatts song. I fell in love with it right away. I was on the verge of tears as I listened, no, I felt the song. The words struck my heart like an arrow, straight and true. I remembered him, and how those 2 short months meant to me. How I loved him, but he could never love me back because of his past. It was complicated, but I wouldn't have traded it for anything.

Not for anything.

What hurts the most, was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do.
