The world can be cruel sometimes

And we never knew

How much we had with each other

And all the things we could do



It didnt start till it was done

And we never understood

Thats if there isn't any bad

There can be good



Chorus

If I could do it all again

I'd take you by the hand

Make you understand

That we could've been

We should've been

And we might've been

Something to write home about



Fate had it in for us

And we should've seen

That the others we loved

Well they might've turned mean



When your hair fell round you face

And that dress you wore

The one with blue lace

Cause when you said you'd listen

And I said I'd care

I knew I loved you

Right then and there



Chorus



So take it back before the start

When we can see

That if we give it a try

Then we can be



Chorus
