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
Chorus:
Could`ve been so beautiful
could`ve been so right
could`ve been my lover
every 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 memorys of our lovin`
still linger in the air
like the faded scent of your roses
they 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 neveRepeat chor be at all
Repeat chorus
How could I hold what could`ve been
on a cold and lonely night?
