[Verse 1]
Have you ever wondered
What it could be like
And I was all set to come back home
You were after nothing I could give long
Have you ever wondered
What it could be like
And I was standing back on my feet
There's nothing there
So now we were better

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know I should have held you closer
And I know I should have treated you better
In a perfect world
But we're not always
What we promised to be
You caught my words in mid-air
The silence hung as you caught my eye
Conversations locked away in my mind

[Chorus]
And I know I should have treated you better

[Instrumental Break]
[Post-Chorus]
And I know I should have treated you better

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know I should have held you closer
And I know I should have treated you better
In a perfect world
But we're not always what we promised to be
You caught my words in mid-air
The silence hung as you caught my eye
Conversations locked away in my mind

[Chorus]
And I know I should have treated you better

[Instrumental Break]

[Post-Chorus]
And I know I should have treated you better
