What if we'd stayed together

What if we'd really tried

Would we still be in Tennessee

Would I have been your bride

Would we be blessed with children

Lovingly watching them grow

Oh the hardest part of seeing you now

Is knowing we'll never know



We'll never know

How much we missed

By not taking love all the way

If we held on just a little bit longer

Where would we be today



What if I'd been more giving

And a little less bent on success

Would you have been more willing to wait

If I had answered yes

Through the years I often wondered

Why did we ever let go

Oh the hardest part of seeing you now

Is knowing we'll never know



We'll never know

How much we missed

By not taking love all the way

If we held on just a little bit longer

Where would we be today



For the rest of my life

I wonder

Why did we ever let go

Oh the hardest part of seeing you now

Is knowing we'll never know

Knowing we'll never know
