It Could Have Been You — текст песни (The Eyeliners)

you were walking by
you were looking so sly
with a cigarette
when you caught my eye


it was love at first sight
and i was hypnotized
but nothing ever materialized


i kept it all inside
held my feeling in disguise
and i know this much is true
that you never knew
that it could have been you


[Chorus]
well i guess you never knew
that it could have been you


i saw you sitting there
didn`t have a care
black leather jacket and purple hair
wanted to ask you out
but i walked away
cause i didn`t know what i could say


now i think back to that day
could things have gone a different way?
but i know this much is true
you never had a clue
that it could`ve been you


[Chorus]


it could have been...
a perfect match to go down in history
better than sid and nancy
a love to last `til the end of time
my punk rock valentine
i could`ve been yours
and you could`ve been mine
will there ever be a next time?


is there such a thing as destiny?
will we ever be a reality?
all that could have been
all that may never be
is this the end of our story?


they say all things fade away
another guy will come my way
but i`ve never seen anyone like you
and you never knew
that it could have been you
