lyrics

Could’ve Been You (by Andy Manoff)

Could’ve been you if I’d known what to say
Might have worked out but it got lost along the way
I can hold on, you can hold out twice and long
You could give in, but you just turned away

You say wasted time, but it’s just your frame of mind
You can still walk out the way that you walked in
Just one simple choice, but your pride’s a louder voice
It’s strange I once thought it could’ve been you

CHORUS
Strange the way that life goes
Strange that all my friends know
Aint it strange I once thought it could’ve been you

Could’ve been you if I’d known what to say
Might have worked out but it got lost along the way
I can hold on, you can hold out twice and long
You could give in, but you just turned away

When you say you’ve tried, I see fear behind your eyes
You’re so afraid I’ll leave you on your own
But you can’t control the world, and you can’t control this girl
Strange I once thought it could’ve been you

CHORUS
Strange the way that life goes
Strange that all my friends know
Aint it strange I once thought it could’ve been you
