Eric Benét - Could Have Been
Taken from his unreleased album "Better & Better" (2001)
A snippet of this tune - played and performed by Eric Benét - can be heard and seen in the movie "Glitter" (2001)
"Tell me who's to blame
I thought that we were on our way
I never dreamed in all my life
That love could feel that way
Did we move too slow, or was it just too soon?
But there I go
Looking back once more
Like a fool I still imagine, what we
Could have been
Could it be we had a chance if we just tried again?
It's the hardest thing to face, it's like
Never knowing how the story ever ends
And I'll never know, just what we could have been
Ohh...
So I'll just say it's meant to be
And this is faith and destiny
But tell me how do I explain this empty heart in me?
Though I write these words, I know I'll carry on
But I love you still
Probably always will
Nothing could ever be so beautiful, as we
Could have been
If only love had led you back into my arms again
It's the hardest thing to know
That I would never love again like we did then
And to never know, just what we could have been
There may be another chance
In some other space and time
Some other circumstance, but would it feel the same?
Oh how wonderful, this world would be
To face it with you here with me
Only heaven knows, maybe there we'll see
Oooh
What we could have been
Could it be there was a chance, if we just tried again?
It's the hardest thing, it's like
Never knowing how the story's going to end
And we'll never know, just what we
Oh, what we could have been baby
Oh, if love could have let you back to my arms again
It's the hardest thing to know that I
Will never love again like we did then, oh no
Never again and to never know, just what we
Could have been..."
