What Might Have Been

​

What are these feelings here, so unfamiliar?

How can it be I let him find a passage to my heart?

We're creatures of two different worlds

How could it ever last?

How can anything meant to stand the test of time

Begin so fast?

​

But suddenly I turned around

And standing there was he!

Was it something in his eyes, his smile

That captured me?

How will I know?

Will there be a sign, telling me it's real?

For this might be the perfect love

That I never let my heart feel.

​

I've watched the days and the years go by

Avoiding this moment

Afraid to put my heart on the line, where it could break

It's safe to give advice, but difficult to take

Why do we wait for tomorrow to come

When the chance of a lifetime is here today?

​

The winds of life sweep us against the tide

Spinning around as we're drifting to where we belong

From a place of peace, to a place still unknown

The winds of life teach us how to grow!

​

Then suddenly, suddenly

Was it something he said, something he did that captured me?

Will I ever know, must there be a sign telling me it's real?

I'd rather choose to love,

Even lose in love,

Than never let my heart feel!

So take a chance, risk the pain

Regret can never outweigh the gain!

Spending all my time, dreaming all my dreams

Not wondering all my life What Might Have Been,

What Might Have Been,

What Might Have Been.
