What We Could Be
(Verse 1)
I saw your picture today with a smile so wide
Holding a little hand with your love by your side
It’s a different life now
One I’m not a part of
But I can’t help but wonder was it ever enough?
(Chorus)
We could've been busy naming baby number 3
Building our dreams
Just you and me
But now you’ve moved on and found a new destiny
And I’m left here with memories of what we could be
(Verse 2)
I remember the nights we’d talk until dawn
Planning a future where nothing could go wrong
But life had other plans and took us different ways
Now you’re living your new life while I count the days
(Chorus)
We could've been busy naming baby number 3
Building our dreams
Just you and me
But now you’ve moved on and found a new destiny
And I’m left here with memories of what we could be
(Bridge)
I hope you find joy in every moment you share
With the family you’ve built with love and care
But sometimes I wonder in the quiet of night
Do you ever think of us and what we had in sight?
(Chorus)
We could've been busy naming baby number 3
Building our dreams
Just you and me
But now you’ve moved on and found a new destiny
And I’m left here with memories of what we could be
(Outro)
So I’ll hold on to the past and let you be free
Wishing you happiness even without me
We could've been busy naming baby number 3
But life had other plans for you and me
