I meet someone the other day
|
It's good to see her face again
|
She's the one who got a way
|
Way back when
|
|
Showed photos of her family
|
Soon to marry mum to be
|
She used to want all that with me
|
And she smiled and I laughed
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Then I imagined if I didn't take that fight
|
What would my world be like?
|
Would I be standing at the altar by her side?
|
Would her child be mine?
|
And I think that I've just seen
|
The Life That Could Have Been
|
|
She's happy now and that's a fact
|
And who am I to mess with that
|
So I won't try to get her back
|
In a way I'm glad
|
|
'Cause that was then and this is now
|
Still I can't help but think about
|
All the things that I'm without
|
But I wave the white flag
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Then I imagined if I didn't take that fight
|
What would my world be like?
|
Would I be standing at the altar by her side?
|
Would her child be mine?
|
And I think that I've just seen
|
The Life That Could Have Been
|
|
And as she was walking away
|
I thought I saw her
|
Turn back and hesitate
|
Look at me as if to say
|
|
I imagined if you didn't take that fight
|
What would my world be like?
|
Would you be standing at the altar by my side?
|
What would our child look like?
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Then I imagined if I didn't take that fight
|
What would my world be like?
|
Would I be standing at the altar by her side?
|
Would her child be mine?
|
And it's the strangest thing
|
And I think that I've just seen
|
The Life That Could Have Been
|
|
The Life That Should Have Been
