I wish I could have met you again a few years ago
Before you met & married someone you didn’t know
I always thought that you’d be mine
Somehow we both lost track of time
The sad thing is we lost track of each other
I could have been your lover
I should have been your lover
I know she doesn’t know you as well as I once did
We were well beyond our years for a couple kids
But I could see inside your dreams
And you’ve achieved most everything
But I know we’re yearning for each other
I could have been your lover
I should have been your lover
Who knows who we finally end up with
We don’t always choose the one that’s right
Love can lead us even when it’s blind
With it’s never-ending burning light
I still have a lover's share of hope inside
When you said you were happy, I just know you lied
I saw it on your face today
That you had something else to say
So I’m here tonight for you to rediscover
If I can be your lover
Let me be your lover
I can be your lover
Let me be your lover
