The flowers you gave me Are just about to die When I think about what could've Makes me want to cry The sweet words you whispered Didn't mean a thing I guess our song is As we began sing
Could've been so beautiful Could've been so right Could've been my lover Everyday of my life Could've been beautiful Could've been so right I'll never know what could've been On a cold and lonely night
The memories of our lovin' Still linger the air Like the faded scent of your roses Stay with me everywhere Everytime I get my hopes up They always to fall Still what could've been Is better than what could be at all
Could've been so beautiful Could've been so right Could've been my lover Everyday of my life Could've been so beautiful Could've been so right You can't what could've been On a cold and lonely night
Could've been so beautiful been so right You can't know what could've been On a cold and lonely night Ni-ooh-ight Ni-ooh-ight How can you know what could've On a cold and lonely night
