It Could Have Been Video (MV)

The moon is hidden behind the clouds
The crickets keep singing out loud
The air already smells like snow
The winter starts to show

I'm sitting here with my old guitar
Beside an empty bottle of vodka
Trying to figure out why always me
Why it just wasn't meant to be

When I first saw you that night
And you held your bottle oh so tight
I really thought that I met someone
For more than just some fun

The sun shone brighter for a while
And the whole world seemed to be mine
The birds sang more beautiful then before
And I couldn't ask for more

But now it happened again
And it ends like it always ends
With the saddest words of paper and pen
It could have been

And when you came to my place
I got up from bed and I got shaved
Though it was one o'clock in the night
I just thought, this time it'll work out right

I think about what you told me
Back when we were having our first coffee
As you told me that you were nervous
And how you loved to be among the nurses

But now it happened again
And it ends like it always ends
With the saddest words of paper and pen
It could have been

And I woke up in the best way
When you wrote and wished me a nice day
And it was reassuring to turn out the light
With your message, wishing me good night

I think about all the things we planned
That now seem to be wiped from from the hand
And everything that I wanted to tell you
But I never got the chance to

But now it happened again
And it ends like it always ends
With the saddest words of paper and pen
It could have been

Can't say I was looking for you
You just happened to be true
An answer without asking
A time full of laughing

Never again will I hear those Charming Bells
The last time was the farewell
And now it drives me insane
If I'll ever see you again

But now it happened again
And it ends like it always ends
With the saddest words of paper and pen
It could have been

And no matter how hard I try
I can't get you off my mind
I'm just sad you couldn't see
How happy you would have made me
And the only thing I do regret
Is simply what I did expect

Maybe it was just my imagination
And now all I have is my frustration
I don't know what I did wrong
So I'm sitting here, writing this song

Maybe we let too much time pass
And if I can't tell you face to face
Please just promise me
That you'll sometimes think of me

But now it happened again
And it ends like it always ends
With the saddest words of paper and pen
It could have been
