What Could Be

Does it scare you to think Of the things you never said All the thoughts that he may never know Does your heart start to sink As you're lying in your bed And you dwell on the love left untold It's a bittersweet reminder of what could be Do you wonder if you're standing where you should be As you're coming around You're still thinking about The life you left unlived For the dreams still asleep For the fires you let burn out All the time in the world couldn't solve Were you stuck in between Did you cave into the doubt Or do we get what we want after all It's a bittersweet reminder of what could be Do you wonder if you're standing where you should be As you sit with the past You're still trying to grasp The life you left unlived Are you still holding hands With the person you won't be Take your time, wave goodbye, could've been You could leave it to chance Choose to follow or to lead One road starts, and another has to end It's a bittersweet reminder of what could be Do you wonder if you're standing where you should be As you're walking away No longer afraid Letting go of the weight As you step out of frame And it's all taking shape Just the choice that you made The life you left unlived
