It could’ve been me
But we always existed in parallel to each other
Always at the wrong place at the right time
Or the wrong time at the right place
Always missing you by a minute, or a block
Missing you by a girl
or two.

It could’ve been me
But all the letters I sent out to space
Hoping they’ll reach you
Got lost somewhere along the way
Somewhere in a forest
Quiet in the night, lost among the leaves
Somewhere in an ocean
Dark at the bottom, lost among the coral reefs


It could’ve been us
I’ve been missing you for five years,
I don’t think I’ll ever stop
You were my brightest star
My beautiful sunrise
And my biggest heartbreak
I dream of you
And I wake up with tears soaking my pillow
These are the only wet dreams that I have
I love you, and I’ll never stop
You were the one for me, the only one for me
You’re gone and I’m hopeless
Because you don’t get lucky twice.
