She's sitting right beside him
With his coat on her shoulders
I'm only passing by so don't mind me
I used to look at her
The same way that he does
Now I'm wondering how this all can be
I'm on my way to city hall
With the papers in my hand
And I can't help thinking that
It could've been us
It could've been us
It could've been you and I
I should've put all of my my trust
In someone new this time
You made it seem so easy
Oh so effortless
Not telling me the those things your eyes confess
It could've been us
But it will never be you and I
She put the pen to paper
Like a knife to my neck
Right then and there I knew I lost the fight
If I had known that she had someone else than me
I would've signed it right away instead
But now I'm on my way to city hall
With the papers in my hand
And I can't help thinking that
It could've been us
