I thought this would be a love song
Beth Keeping, Kaity Rae
We were strangers but it's strange how
Well I thought I knew you
It was raining at the station
You picked me up around two
You bought me milky coffee
Were nice to the waiter
Damn that got me
Hating the way you came in
And started something that I can't undo
Singing your name like a slow jam
Thought it was fate til it crashed down
It's not like me to get carried away
I thought this would be it could be it could be
You and me
We could be a love song
Now I'm just sick of them thinking what could've been
Should've been every time I hear one
We were almost timeless
Now I'm hitting rewind and beginning again
I thought this would be it could be it could be
You and me
We could be a love song
Almost mine for a while till
You found something "better"
Does she like the way you lied
Well I hope you're happy together
This time it really got me
So I'm throwing out all the books you bought me
Hated the way you made me
Think I could never live without you
Stuck in my head and you go round
Thought it was fate but I know now
It's on you
Yeah don't you think it's kind of a waste
I thought this would be it could be it could be
You and me
We could be a love song
Now I'm just sick of them thinking what could've been
Should've been every time I hear one
We were almost timeless
Now I'm hitting rewind and beginning again
I thought this would be it could be it could be
You and me
We could be a love song
We could've been an anthem
We'd sing it in the car
Wouldn't need the radio
When we're dancing in the dark
Guess you never heard it
Or it wasn't your style
Now I'm back where I started
Trying to figure out why
I thought this would be it could be it could be
You and me
We could be a love song
Now I'm just sick of them thinking what could've been
Should've been every time I hear one
We were almost timeless
Now I'm hitting rewind and beginning again
I thought this would be it could be it could be
You and me
We could be a love song
Like Whitney and Mariah
Full strings and a choir
Celine and Shania
The kind where you already know every line
We were almost timeless
Now I'm hitting rewind and beginning again
I thought this would be it could be it could be
You and me
We could be a love song
