We Could Have Been

Today at work i overheard a name

I knew it wasn't yours but it touched me just the same

It felt so good to have you in my mind

I guess i'm the sentimental kind

I wonder who you became

Did you change the world

Or play the game

We came so close to love back then

We could have been

You were so brave when i was shy

I made you laugh when something made you cry

And i don't think we ever said goodbye

Now i'll always wonder why

I wonder who you became

Did you change the world

Or play the game

We came so close to love back then

We could have been

A time or two

I thought about calling

But something always gets in the way

Maybe i'm afraid you'd really answer

What would i say to you

I wonder who you became

Did you change the world

Or play the game

We came so close to love back then

We could have been

We could have been
