I Could Have Been I could have been— I could have been your girl. And not just any girl— your girl. The one you come home to, the one you hold tight. You wouldn’t have to fight battles that weren’t yours to beat, or carry secrets you were never meant to keep. I could have been happy— happy with you. If only you could have loved me too.

I Could Have been
I Could Have Been I could have been— I could have been your girl. And not just any girl— your girl. The one you come home to, the one you hold tight. You wouldn’t have to fight battles that weren’t yours to beat, or carry secrets you were never meant to keep. I could have been happy— happy with you. If only you could have loved me too.
A soft ache for the could-have-beens.
