lyrics

It's been a long time since I fell in love with you
We were too young for all the things that we went through
You left me picking up the pieces of my heart
We held ourselves together and it tore us both apart
No no

So many years have passed, the time we had was brief
The faith I had in love has turned to disbelief
There's someone different now who stirs me from my sleep
I think I love her but there's thoughts of you I keep

And when I'm with her and she holds me in her arms
I'm sometimes thinking to myself
That it could've been you

It could've been you [x3]

I knew it from the start, our love could never last
Your heart was like a candle burning way too fast
And when the flame went out I thought that I would die
You disappeared, I never got to say goodbye

All I can tell you is you're always in my dreams
‘Cos I'm always thinking to myself
That it could've been you

It could've been you [x3]

And I'll try and shake you from my mind
But I still won't find anyone like you
I'll never ever ever
And it could've been you

It could've been you [x5]
