It`s hard to believe
That one night brought me here
If I`d never said that word
I`d have never wasted all these years
My friends say, think of all that I`d have missed
If we`d never met
They don`t know that`s the stuff
I`ve been trying to forget
CHORUS
If I`d never gone to Dallas
If I`d never lost track of time
If I`d never missed my plane
Had to stay another night
If I`d never opened up my hotel door
Just as you walked by
I`d have never said hello
You`d have never said goodbye
It`s been three weeks
Twenty-one days without a word
I guess if you were coming back
I`d have already heard
I keep thinking about all the things
That I wish I`d never done
It`s so clear to me now
I can name them one by one
CHORUS
If I`d never gone to Dallas
If I`d never lost track of time
If I`d never missed my plane
Had to stay another night
If I`d never opened up my hotel door
Just as you walked by
I`d have never said hello
You`d have never said goodbye
It could have all been different
Well, there`s no way of knowing
But I`m sure today
It`s safe to say
My heart would not be broken
CHORUS
If I`d never gone to Dallas
If I`d never lost track of time
If I`d never missed my plane
Had to stay another night
If I`d never opened up my hotel door
Just as you walked by
I`d have never said hello
You`d have never said goodbye
You`d have never said goodbye
You`d have never said goodbye
