What Could Have Been Lyrics

There was someone I used to love
A long, long time ago
He found someone before I had
A chance to let him knowAnd every time I tried to get
My heart to close that door
I think about what could have been
And only love him moreI told a friend how sad I was
The fate was so unfair
This prefect love that could have been
My heart would never shareAnd not till summer came and went
Did her advice ring true
When I found out my heart was meant
To fall in love with youWe never know what could have been
But looking back we see
What could have been and never was
Was never meant to beI saw the one I used to love
When I went out today
I said, "Hello", I met his wife

Then I was on my wayIt may be luck, it may be fate
It may be God's design
I only know it's no mistake
I'm yours and you are mineWe never know what could have been
But looking back we see
What could have been and never was
Was never meant to be
