Could Have Been
Turned around just the other day
I caught her face in the evening sun's new shade
A knowing smile and then you turn away
I should have yelled but I couldn't recall your name
What's your name?
Before I speak I'm caught up in my head
Could be too far to just say what I should have said
Maybe I'll ask if she remembers me
Maybe she'll say I should have called her up last week
What's your name?
And I'm calling her, calling her back
She can't hear me, hear me through the soundtrack
So I'm calling her, calling her back
Guess I killed the time, it's alright
We should have seen what we could have been
But I'll float on through
Yeh I'll float on through
But as I move I see I made mistakes
It's kinda funny as I stand and watch them embrace
He takes her hand and they walk down the street
I take my chin and pick it up from below my feet
What's his name?
And I'm calling her, calling her back
She can't hear me, hear me through the soundtrack
So I'm calling her, calling her back
Guess I killed the time, it's alright
We should have seen what we could have been
But I'll float on through
I'll float on through
I'll float on through
I'll float on through
Yeh, I'll float on through
I caught her face in the evening sun's new shade
A knowing smile and then you turn away
I should have yelled but I couldn't recall your name
What's your name?
Before I speak I'm caught up in my head
Could be too far to just say what I should have said
Maybe I'll ask if she remembers me
Maybe she'll say I should have called her up last week
What's your name?
And I'm calling her, calling her back
She can't hear me, hear me through the soundtrack
So I'm calling her, calling her back
Guess I killed the time, it's alright
We should have seen what we could have been
But I'll float on through
Yeh I'll float on through
But as I move I see I made mistakes
It's kinda funny as I stand and watch them embrace
He takes her hand and they walk down the street
I take my chin and pick it up from below my feet
What's his name?
And I'm calling her, calling her back
She can't hear me, hear me through the soundtrack
So I'm calling her, calling her back
Guess I killed the time, it's alright
We should have seen what we could have been
But I'll float on through
I'll float on through
I'll float on through
I'll float on through
Yeh, I'll float on through
