Maybe
I SEE THE WAY SHE DOEN’T TREAT YOU RIGHT.
I SEE WHAT YOU KEEP DEEP INSIDE.
YOU KNOW SHE WON’T STAY.
THAT’S THE PRICE YOU PAY.
FOR US IS IT TO LATE.
MAYBE IF I HAD BEEN THERE INSTEAD OF JUMPING THE GUN,
YOU WOULD HAVE REALIZED YOUR LIFE JUST BEGUN.
IF I COULD JUST HOLD YOU ONE MORE TIME.
THE WAY I HELD YOU WHEN YOU WERE MINE.
IF I HAD KNEW THEN WHAT I KNOW
THEIRS NO WAY I LET YOU GO, NO WAY, NO HOW.
IF I COULD HAVE BEEN THE PERSON YOU COULD RUN TO
THEN I’D MAKE EVERY DREAM COME TRUE.
I WOULD NEVER LET OUR FEELING GO
IF THEIRS ANY WAY I WOULD HAVE KNOWN.
IF WE COULD ONLY TAKE EACHOTHERS PLACE,
WE COULD ERASE THE PAIN WE COULDN’T FACE.
THEN MAYBE YOU COULD LOVE ME,
THE WAY YOU LOVED ME.
