What Could Have Been Lyrics

There's time enough to make your mark

Upon the rocks of unknown mountains

Time enough to play your part

In the lives of those you're yet to meet

There's life enough to walk the path

That you swore you'd never tread

Life enough to keep the promises

That you swear were never said

You can run from love til your legs stop moving

And take life's lessons never improving

But I promise you one thing my love you'll see

You'll always wonder what could have been

Don't take for granted those who love you

You never know who'll be the last

That hand you feel in yours might falter

So hold it now and hold it fast

Missing something you never had

Grieving someone you never met

Losing what you'd only dreamt

Regretting what you never said
