Could've Been Lyrics - Mandy Moore

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 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 lonely night

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

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 always 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 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
