What Could Have Been Love

[Verse 1]
I wake up and wonder how everything went wrong
Am I the one to blame?
I gave up and left you for a nowhere-bound train
Now that train has come and gone
I close my eyes and see you lying in my bed
And I'm still dreaming of that day

[Chorus]
What could have been love
Should have been the only thing that was ever meant to be
Didn't know, couldn't see what was right in front of me
And now that I'm alone all I have is emptiness that comes from being free
What could have been love will never be

[Verse 2]
An old friend told me that you found somebody new
Oh, you're finally moving on
You think that I'd be over you after all these years
Yeah, but time has proved me wrong
Cause I'm still holding on

[Chorus]
What could have been love
Should have been the only thing that was ever meant to be
Didn't know, couldn't see what was right in front of me
And now that I'm alone all I have is emptiness that comes from being free
What could have been love will never be

[Verse 3]
We've gone our separate ways
Say goodbye to another day
I still wonder where you are
Are you too far from turning back?
You were slippin through my hands and I didn't understand

[Chorus]
What could have been love
Should have been the only thing that was ever meant to be
Didn't know, couldn't see what was right in front of me
And now that I'm alone all I have is emptiness that comes from being free
What could have been love will never be

[Outro]
What could have been love will never be
What could have been love
What could have been love
What could have been love
What could have been love
