Baby when I see you walk
You charge into my soul
Talented you got it all

And act like you don't know

Even though you try so hard
You never let it show
You wouldn't open up your heart
Except to let me go

Cuz it coulda been you, babe
But you had to hesitate
Coulda been you, babe
But you were too afraid
Coulda been you, babe
But you had to hesitate, had to investigate
Could you, baby
But you were too afraid, you couldn't keep the faith

I thought we would hit it off
That I was mister right
But I know when to take a loss
Who am I to fight?
I know that you could heal my pain
You could save my life
You probably don't remember my name
But that's alright

Coulda been you, babe
You had to hesitate
Coulda been you, babe
But you were too afraid
Coulda been you, babe
You had to hesitate, had to investigate
Could you, baby
But you were too afraid, you couldn't keep the faith
