What Might Have Been

I wanted you to see me

But for so long, you were blind

Now it's time to face tomorrow

And leave all that stuff behind

Of what would our lives have been like

If you'd just given me a sign

'Cause I like you more than every other

Thing I like combined

I spent so many summers

Hoping something would begin

I thought that I was over you

But here I am again

What might have been

(Phineas, honey, how are you?)

(Hi Mrs. Garcia-Shapiro

Uh, is Isabella here?)

(Oh no, sweetie, she's gone)

(Gone like driving, car, school, gone?)

(Yes, you just missed her, it's too bad you didn't get to see her off

You know, since you were kids, she's had a huge crush on you)

(I wish I had known)

I can't believe that all this time

You never said a word

Although it's possible you did

And I just never heard

I never even noticed

I guess I wasn't that alert

But I must say that, in retrospect

You were being quite overt

And now our endless summer

Is finally coming to an end

I tried to make the most of every day

But now the years just seem misspent

What might have been

I could've been your girlfriend

I could've been your fella

We might've been an item

They would've called us Phinabella

I would've held the door for you

I would've shared my umbrella

You could've held my hair back

When I was sick with salmonella

(Sick with salmonella)

We could've been together

All you had to say was when

And though I wanted so much more

I guess you'll always be my friend

What might have been

What might have been

What might have been

(What might have been)
