There are times in life we meet someone
We think they are the one
Then something unexpected happens
When love barely has begun
We walk away we say goodbye
We let love slip away
We tell ourself another love
Will surely come our way
Sometimes we quit too easily
Say that’s how it has to be
We never know what just might come
If we were to wait and see
We could have found our only one
Had we just let love in
Instead we leave before love grows
Or even can begin
And so it was with you and I
We gave up too easily
We’ll never know what could have been
If we were meant to be
Was there a real chance for us?
Were you my destiny?
Love could have lived forever
If we had fought for you and me
We could have made it if we tried
If we had put our fears aside
Instead we let our worlds collide
We’ll never know what could have been
If we had just let love in
Give it a chance let it begin
We’ll never know
Love is unpredictable
When it will come when it will go
Now all we know for certain
Is that we will never know
And so it was with you and I
We gave up too easily
We’ll never know what could have been
If we were meant to be
Was there a real chance for us?
Were you my destiny?
Love could have lived forever
If we had fought for you and me
