What It Might Have Been (Lyrics and Video)



I know you know
That we're through--
I know you know
What you got to do.
Knowing is, Showing is,
Just a part of it
But I got a clue
It ain't what I know that makes me blue--
It's what I thought I knew.

I lost a lot of things
'Fore you came--
I know that losin'
is just part of the game.
and I'm sure I'll lose more
But all the same
It ain't what I lost that makes me sad--
It's what I thought I had.

Well, it is what it is--
Let it go.
Ain't what it was;
That's for sure
Things wanna be what they'll be
In spite of me, or you
Even though--
It ain't what it is that's such a sin--
It's what it might have been.

Oh it is what it is--
Let it go.
It ain't what it was,
Now we know.
Things wanna be what they'll be
In spite of me, or you--
Even though--
It ain't what it is that's such a sin
It's what it might have been.
