The flowers that you gave me Are just about to die When I think about what could've been 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 know what could've been On a cold and lonley night
The memories of our lovin' Still linger in the air Like the faded scent of your roses Stay with me everywhere Everytime I get my hopes up They only seem to fall Still what could've been Is better than what could never be 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 know what could've been On a cold and lonely night
Could've been so beautiful Could've been so right You can't know what could've been On a cold and lonely night Ni-ooh-ight Ni-ooh-ight How can you know what could've been On a cold and lonely night
