I remember the times, chasing our dreams Nothing could stop us, or so it would seem We lit up the dark with the fire we made Believing forever would never fade Things changed, you wanted me to walk in shame I got tired, and I knew it'd never be the same You walked away, left the fire to fade And I built my dreams from the ashes we made It could have been you here by my side Through every storm, through changing tide We had the path, I knew the truth But you threw it away, it could have been you We had a bond no one understood Turned every wrong into something good But you let doubt tear it all apart Listened to lies instead of your heart Now I see faces I've never known But I still think back to all we'd grown You can't undo what you chose to lose And now all I can say, it could have been you It could have been you here by my side Through every storm, through changing tide We had the path, I knew the truth But you threw it away, it could have been you No hate, no blame, just a story told Of a dream too fragile to ever hold I'll sing it loud till the sky turns blue A melody whispering, it could have been you It could have been you It could have been you But you let it go, it could have been you
