What Could Have Been Lyrics - Singles - Sean Earle

Nighttime daydream, Gatsby, Daisy 

Stuck in this chapter based on a fantasy 

But like Marilyn and the spotlight 

A love affair, not right 

We all should have known she was writing a tragedy 

So tell me how does it feel to sleep in somebody else's arms? 

To have the chance to heal somebody else's scars 

Have you ever thought about just where the hell I went 

Ever wondered what could have been? 

Sinatra, my way, James Dean on the highway 

Some things go to sleep but they never die 

Love is a gamble, sometimes a candle 

The same fire that warmed you burns you alive 

So tell me how does it feel to sleep in somebody else's arms? 

To have the chance to heal somebody else's scars 

Have you ever thought about just where the hell I went 

Ever wondered what could have been? 

You know I would have done it all just to get you to stay here 

But no one prepared me for the fall, living a real life Shakespeare 

But it's like someone ripped out the end 

Made up of letters that I can't send 

Now we're just a what could have been 

So tell me how does it feel to sleep in somebody else's arms? 

To have the chance to heal somebody else's scars 

Have you ever thought about just where the hell I went 

Have you ever wondered what could have been?
