Could Have Been - Lee Fields

Could have been a life that kept on going

Could have been a lifetime without knowing

But instead, you walked into my life

Now you’re leaving me

Oh, you’re leaving me

I just can’t believe you’re leaving me

Could have been a man who never cried for no one

Could have been a man, never died for no one

But instead, you walked into my life

Now you’re leaving me

Ooh, baby, you’re leaving me

In another life, our paths may never have crossed

But, oh, somebody please, somebody please tell me

How happy could I have been

Never to know the love I lost, oh

Could have been our love kept on burning

Could have been a world kept on turning

But instead, I made a big mistake

Now you’re leaving me

Oh, you’re leaving me

Can’t you see the tears in my eyes?

Girl, you’re tearing me apart

You’re breaking my heart, now

Please, don’t you go baby, no no no
