We Could Have Been

Today at work I overheard a name I knew it wasn't yours but it touched me just the same It felt so good to have you in my mind I guess I'm the sentimental kind I wonder who you became Did you change the world Or play the game We came so close to love back then We could have been You were so brave when I was shy I made you laugh when something made you cry And I don't think we ever said goodbye Now I'll always wonder why I wonder who you became Did you change the world Or play the game We came so close to love back then We could have been A time or two I thought about calling But something always gets in the way Maybe I'm afraid you'd really answer What would I say to you I wonder who you became Did you change the world Or play the game We came so close to love back then We could have been We could have been --- We Could Have Been - Vince Gill
