It Could Have Been Better Lyrics

I was very sad last night
You came by
I was so glad though sadness covered
The smile I kept for you
I was waiting for the cloud to pass over
Then I could show my loveYou could have made me laugh if you'd stayed
But you left
I was more confused than I was before you came
I was frightened
I saw insanity and tears
I shouted for you to stayIt could have been better
If you had held my hand
And smiled at me
Or questioned why
My face was so distortedI'm back in the sunlight again
Oh I'm so glad
It's only joy I wanna give to you
Sometimes I feel lost and desperate

Please forgive me
If I show no sign of reasoning
Or consideration
In my bleaker times
