If Only We Were a Song

Lyrics

[INTRO] Soft piano, a slow beat, a whisper of regret. [VERSE 1] I walked the hallway with a song in my head, Thought I had the right notes, but I didn’t. If I’d known the rhythm, if I’d let it flow, The echo would have sang our love in glow. [CHORUS] Would’ve, could’ve, should’ve, they all echo in my mind, A chorus of what‑if that’s left behind. If only we had turned the page, the melody, the line, The silence breaks, but we’re still stuck in time. [VERSE 2] You held my hand, the beat of your pulse in the air, But I was dancing in the dark, unaware. If I’d listened to the beat, I’d’ve found the truth, Your words were the lyrics I was missing. [CHORUS] Would’ve, could’ve, should’ve, the refrain of every doubt, The notes we never shared, the music that would shout. In this empty room, I hear the song I’m about. But the key is lost, and the silence stays about. [BRIDGE] There’s a bridge that never built, a bridge we never crossed, A melody that never finished, a line that was never lost. I hear the chords you played, but I never caught the beat, The rhythm of your heart, and now it’s incomplete. [CHORUS] Would’ve, could’ve, should’ve, echo louder when the lights fade, The music we could have shared is still a masquerade. I’m turning back the hands, but the clock’s still moving, In this song of what‑ifs, I’m still refusing. [OUTRO] The piano fades, the echo stays in the air. The song we never made, the note I never sang. The future is a chorus of the words that might have been, In the silence, the music lives, it’s not yet seen.
