What Could Have Been Love lyrics

I wake up and wonder how everything went wrong

Am I the one to blame?

I gave up and left you for a nowhere-bound train

Now that train has come and gone

I close my eyes and see you lying in my bed

And I still dream of that day

What could have been love

Should have been the only thing that was ever meant to be

Didn't know, couldn't see what was lying in front of me

And now that I'm alone all I have is emptiness that comes from being free

What could have been love will never be

An old friend who told me that you found somebody new

Oh, you're finally moving on

You think that I'd be over you after all these years

Yeah, but time has proved it wrong

'Cause I'm still holdin' on

What could have been love

Should have been the only thing that was ever meant to be

Didn't know, couldn't see what was lying in front of me

And now that I'm alone all I have is emptiness that comes from being free

What could have been love will never be

We've gone our separate ways

Say goodbye to another day

I still wonder where you are

Are you too far from turning back?

You were slipping through my hands and I didn't understand

What could have been love

Should have been the only thing that was ever meant to be

Didn't know, couldn't see what was lying in front of me

And now that I'm alone all I have is emptiness that comes from being free

What could have been love will never be
