It's hard to believe

We weren't to be

And all good things end eventually

But here I am

Walking away

And you're down on your knees

Begging me, "Please, baby, stay"

Well, no can do

'Cause boy you were untrue

The only rule there is no exception to

Three's a crowd

So where does that leave you now?

That's what you get for living loud

Remember

Coulda been right, coulda been cool

Coulda been the best thing since high school

Coulda been wild, coulda been free

You coulda been everything to me

Coulda been real, coulda been hot

Coulda been the one who hits my spot

But you're not

And all you got

Is something that coulda been

But you're not

And all you got

Is something, that coulda been

I used to think

I couldn't live without us together

But boy, look at me now

I got my hopes

My whole life and all my dreams

So as you wave goodbye to me

Just remember

Coulda been right, coulda been cool

Coulda been the best thing since high school (High school)

Coulda been wild, coulda been free

You coulda been everything to me

(You coulda been everything, yeah)

Coulda been real, coulda been hot

Coulda been the one who hits my spot

But you're not

And all you got (And all you got)

Is something that coulda been (Ooh yeah)

But you're not

And all you got

Is something (Is something), that coulda been

Someday you'll see me walking down the street

Looking all confident and complete

Wondering if you made a mistake

Threw it away too soon

I'll wave and blow you a kiss

And say it's cool, running into you like this

How you doing?

Have any kids?

Do you ever look back and wish that

You could turn

Turn, turn back time

And make me change my mind? (Make me change my mind)

But you didn't, so let's get on with letting go

Almost doesn't count, you know?

So remember, remember

So remember, remember

Coulda been right, coulda been cool

Coulda been the best thing since high school (High school)

Coulda been wild, coulda been free

You coulda been everything to me

(You coulda been everything)

Coulda been real, coulda been hot

Coulda been the one who hits my spot

But you're not

And all you got (And all you got)

Is something that coulda been (Ooh yeah)

Coulda been right, coulda been cool

Coulda been the best thing since high school (High school)

Coulda been wild, coulda been free

You coulda been everything to me

(You coulda been everything)

Coulda been real, coulda been hot

Coulda been the one who hits my spot

But you're not (But you're not)

And all you got (And all you got)

Is something that coulda been (Ooh yeah)

But you're not

And all you got

Is something (Is something), that coulda been
