It Could Have Been Better

(Kim Carnes/Dave Ellingson)

You won't see me cryin' anymore

And don't think because I mention your name

I still love you

But it could have been so so much better

Now what if we'd believed each other's lies

And just suppose you'd tried holding me closer

Once or twice

Then it could have been so so much better

The all night movies are my only company

And love's so clear in black and white

Somebody's wrong and somebody's always right

Another happy ending and I'm still all alone

And I wonder if it could have been so much better
