Everything

We could've been everything, But I didn't want to risk what we had, I thought I was saving our friendship, But it turned out that idea was bad, By denying us our love, I ruined our friendship anyway, I can't change the past, I regret that every day, I was sitting on the bus, Trying to understand, That's when I saw you with her, Together, holding hands, And I realised for the millionth time, That the blame belongs with me, I guess I'll spend a life of heartache, Contemplating my stupidity, You told me that you love her, And you shot my denial dead, "I couldn't look anyone in the eyes, But I just stare at hers" you said, I almost wish you didn't add, "That is except for you, Your eyes are such a pretty colour" That tore me straight in two, I had my chance - I lost it, I guess I should move on, But I wonder what we could've been, And if we'd had lasted long, You gave me reason to smile, You gave me reason to sing, I guess it hurts so much, Because we could've been everything, Everything.
