Could've Been

The flowers you gave me
Are just about to die
When I think about what could've been
Makes me want to cry

The sweet words you whispered
Didn't mean a thing
I guess our song is over
As we began to sing

[Chorus]
Could've been so beautiful
Could've been so right
Could've been my lover
Everyday of my life
Could've been so beautiful
Could've been so right
I'll never know what could've been
On a cold and lonely night

The memories of our lovin
Still linger in the air
Like the faded sent of your roses
Stay with me everywhere

Everytime I get my hopes up
They always seem to fall
Still what could've been is better than
What could never be at all
At all

[Chorus]

Could've been so beautiful
Could've been so right
You can know what could've been On a cold and lonely night
How can you know what could've been on a cold and lonely night
