What Could’ve Been
She said, "Once or twice would be very nice
But there's got to be something more to lovin'"
But I laughed and said, "Hey, it's okay
'Cause I'm not naive toward this kinda happenin'"
So I held her tight and said that it's all right
And I knew that it was time to make my motion
But apparently she didn't agree with me
And vehemently, she let me know her notion
It could've been the special one
That I searched to find
It could've been the perfect girl
With a moral mind
I had a chance, but now she's gone
And I have to let her go
So now I guess that I will never know
What could've been
Well, it seemed to me she had all I need
And I tried for so long just to get to see her
I ruined all my plans 'cause I couldn't control my hands
And now I can't do anything to please her
Well, I'd use the phone, but she was never home
And I think her roommates tried to pacify me
'Cause when I visited, they said she wasn't there
She was simply visiting a foreign country, yeah
It could've been the special one
That I searched to find
It could've been the perfect girl
With a moral mind
I had a chance, but now she's gone
And I have to let her go
So now I guess that I will never know
I'm feeling too frantic
I don't understand it
How a girl like that could get a hold on me, yeah
I'm livin' through memories
I know it's not good for me
'Cause the way she looks at me
I know it'll never be
We coulda had somethin', but now we got nothin'
I shouldn't have worked and jumped the gun for the lovin'
Now every time I try to call her on the phone
I tell her that I'm sorry just to hear a loud [?]
Shoulda waited, anticipated, but now it all seems
That I lost the girl of my dreams
I'm out in the cold when I should have been in
Left with the thought of how it could've been
Baby didn't want me
The girl, she didn't want me
Baby didn't want me, yeah
Baby didn't want me
The girl, she didn't want me
So now I guess that I will never know
It could've been the special one
That I searched to find
It could've been the perfect girl
With a moral mind
I had a chance, but now she's gone
And I have to let her go
So now I guess that I will never know
It could've been...
That I searched to find
It could've been...
I had a chance...
So now I guess that I will never know
