What Could Have Been
If only I had known you better,
Or hadn't known you at all,
Or if I had let down my defenses
And allowed myself to fall,
Or if I had known what to say,
Or if you hadn't looked at me
That Way...
I could've had everything,
If I had known what you meant,
I wouldn't be so restless now,
So rife with discontent,
But I just stood there staring,
Afraid to make a move,
If only I'd had the courage,
But I had too much to lose.
