Life isn't always fair and we don't always get to make the choices we would like but we can always think and dream now and then of all the what ifsssssssssss...

Could have been me that got to hold you

Could have been me beside you every night

Could have been my arms you would run to

Could have been me if I had done things right

 

Could have been me swaying country music

Could have been me on Christmas Eves

Could have been my lips kissing yours

Could have been me walking in the autumn leafs

 

Could have been our stars and moon above us

Could have been us walking hand in hand

Could have been two of us sharing laughter

Could have been me I really understand

 

So many could have beens,

a few should have beens

a couple what might have beens,

all wrapped up in couldn’t wins!
