There was someone I used to love |
|
A long, long time ago |
|
He found someone before I had |
|
A chance to let him know |
|
And every time I tried to get |
|
My heart to close that door |
|
I'd think about what could have been |
|
And only love him more |
|
I told a friend how sad I was |
|
That fate was so unfair |
|
This perfect love that could have been |
|
My heart would never share |
|
And not till summer came and went |
|
Did her advice ring true |
|
When I found out my heart was meant |
|
To fall in love with you |
|
We never know what could have been |
|
But looking back we see |
|
What could have been and never was |
|
Was never meant to be |
|
I saw the one I used to love |
|
When I went out today |
|
I said hello, I met his wife |
|
Then I was on my way |
|
It 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 mine |
|
We never know what could have been |
|
But lookin' back we see |
|
What could have been and never was |
|
Was never meant to be |
