The flowers that 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 begin to sing
|
|
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 scent 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
|
|
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
|
You can't know what could've been
|
On a cold and lonely night
|
|
Could've been so beautiful
|
Could've been so right
|
You can't know what could've been
|
On a cold and lonely night
|
Ni-ooh-ight
|
Ni-ooh-ight
|
How can you know what could've been
|
On a cold and lonely night
|
