Sure I think about you now and then But it's been a long, long time I've got a good life now, I've moved on So when you cross my mind [Chorus] I try not to think about what might have been Cause that was then and we have taken diff'rent roads We can't go back again there's no use giving in And there's no way to know What might have been We could sit and talk about this all night long And wonder why we didn't last Yes, they might be the best days we will ever know But we'll have to leave them in the past. [Chorus] That same old look in your eyes It's a beautiful night I'm so tempted to stay But too much time has gone by We should just say good-bye And turn and walk away [Chorus] No, we'll never know What might have been
