The daughter I never had
The son that should have been mine
The love never consummated
The years gone by
The sadness and the sorrow
The what I should have done
The memories we never made
It could have been such fun

I look back through rain-soaked windows
I see us walking in the sun
Rainbows all around us
The love we could have won

The feelings are forever
The lives we since have led
The paths that we both followed
The past we cannot shed
The grim smile as I give thanks
The words I did not say
To the one I truly love
The one that got away
