The flowers you gave me

Are just about to die

When I think about what could've been

It makes me want to cry

The sweet words you whispered

Didn't mean a thing

I guess our song is over

As we begin to sing

Could've been so beautiful

Could've been so right

Could've been my lover

Everyday day of my life

Could've been so beautiful

Could've been so right

I'll never hold what could've been

On a cold and lonely night

The memories of our loving

Still linger in the air

Like the faded scent of your roses

That stay with me everywhere

Everytime I get my hopes up

They always seem to fall

Still what could've been

Is better than what could never be at all, at all

Could've been so beautiful

Could've been so right

Could've been my lover

Everyday day of my life

Could've been so beautiful

Could've been so right

You can't hold what could've been

On a cold and lonely night

Could've been so beautiful

Could've been so right

You can't hold what could've been

On a cold and lonely night

No, no

How can you hold what could've been

On a cold and lonely night
