Songs I Wrote

We Could Be (Old Song)

Verse 1: I always thought we had a chance to be until that day when I found out who you love. I could feel my head falling out of the clouds above. When I left I told you how I feel. I dreamed that we could be the real deal. You don't know how broke I am. I stay silent because I'm choking on tears. You can't see it because you don't love me.

Chorus: You don't seem to care that I left. You still have her, but I'll never have you. I reached out, but you turned away. I cried for you, but you ignored me. Now I'm gone and for all you know I moved on. Now I love him. He's not like you, but I love him too. I remember you were the only guy for me. I loved you for three years, but you barely gave me a glance. I was waiting for my chance to talk to you. I know I should have said something instead, but I was scared. I know you couldn't love me. Who could love me? I have to let go of you, but sometimes I wonder what if we could be?

Verse 2: I bet by now you forgot about me. It's been almost three months, but I bet you don't care. When I was there you never talked to me. It bummed me out, but I don't know how I didn't go crazy before. When I found out you never loved me I have given up on love. I always tried super hard to notice you, but it's not me. It's never been me. I have always wondered what we would be like. I'd do anything to make you happy. I was afraid that if we dated and broke up it'd make things awkward, but for you I was willing to take that risk. All I needed was that one kiss. I felt like I was in a room with no air. Waiting to die, but before I do I see you. You and her. Just standing around not saving me. You just don't see my suffocation. You can't see it because you don't love me.

Chorus: You don't seem to care that I left. You still have her, but I'll never have you. I reached out, but you turned away. I cried for you, but you ignored me. Now I'm gone and for all you know I moved on. Now I love him. He's not like you, but I love him too. I remember you were the only guy for me. I loved you for three years, but you barely gave me a glance. I was waiting for my chance to talk to you. I know I should have said something instead, but I was scared. I know you couldn't love me. Who could love me? I have to let go of you, but sometimes I wonder what if we could be?

Verse 3: The memory of you starts to fade from my memory. I don't know what to say. I wish I could've stayed. I have nightmares based on the things I didn't say. I remember seeing you there. You and your orange hair. I loved everything about you. They say patience gives you what you need. The thing you need clearly isn't me. When I wrote the note you had no emotion to show. You never said yes and you never said no. I knew either way I had to let you go. You were my dream guy, but when I told myself you loved me it was a lie. Keeping the truth from myself is just too easy, but at the same time makes me queasy. Now I am hurting out loud. It is being ignored by everyone all around. You don't seem to know it at all. You can't see it because you don't love me.

Chorus: You don't seem to care that I left. You still have her, but I'll never have you. I reached out, but you turned away. I cried for you, but you ignored me. Now I'm gone and for all you know I moved on. Now I love him. He's not like you, but I love him too. I remember you were the only guy for me. I loved you for three years, but you barely gave me a glance. I was waiting for my chance to talk to you. I know I should have said something instead, but I was scared. I know you couldn't love me. Who could love me? I have to let go of you, but sometimes I wonder what if we could be?
