Kim Carnes It Could Have Been Better lyrics

You won't see me cryin' anymore
And don't think because I mention your name
I still love you

But it could have been so so much better
How could we know at the time?
That is could have been so so much better
It's so easy to look back and say
That, "Things could be so much better if I had you today"

Now what if we'd believed each other's lies
And just suppose, you'd tried holding me closer
Once or twice


Then it could have been so so much better
How could we know at the time?
That is could have been so so much better
It's so easy to look back and say
That, "Things could be so much better if I had you today"

The all night movies are my only company
And love's so clear in black and white
Somebody's wrong and somebody's always right
Another happy ending and I'm still all alone
And I wonder if it could have been so much better
