[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Spring time we took a trip from paradise
The trip we took was rather nice but
She says the distance is too far for us
So what's the point of starting us?
I bleed inside, asking "Can we at least try?"
She doesn't understand my master plan to make it work
All relationships are gonna take some work
And it takes two to tango but her steps are moving in other directions
I watch from afar wondering if not me then who else
You've felt hard rocks but to me we had some jewels
I know you'd do well with or without me
But you saw potential in me from the get go
How could you let go? We almost had it
Instead you moved ahead cuz you were scared of going back to heartbreak
Hope you remember how my heart tastes
Heart of a lion but what's Simba without a Nala?
What's Michelle without Obama?
Still a strong ass woman but sometimes I sit and wonder
What it coulda been (Pretty)

[Chorus]
Isn’t it pretty to think so
Maybe we could have been perfect
Isn't it pretty to think so
Isn't it pretty to think so (Aw yeah)
Isn't it pretty to think so
Isn't it pretty to think so (Aw yeah)

[Verse 2]
I watched the waves push me away
And you didn't even wave goodbye
But I'll never forget the day you said hi
It was a blissful moment but silly me
I didn't hold it
I should have kissed you I should have hugged you
I should have sounded way more confident when I told you that I love you
But instead I let the fear of rejection create a misconception
Had you thinking I was flexing
Made you question how I really feel
But with all that I've shown you should know that it's really real
I really like you I really love you
I realized that I should have looked you in your eyes
And told how much you mean in my life
Held your hand then bid goodbyes
Cuz I don't know if I will see you again
So for now I'm sitting lonely on a paradise
Thinking what we had was rather nice
But all good things come to an end
As I sit and watch the sunlight turn to thunder
I sit and wonder what we really could have been (Pretty)

[Chorus]
