We could’ve been us

Verse

We talk like lovers

In another life

We always let it slide

You smile like you’re waiting for a sign

We just keep pretending

Everything’s alright

Pre c

So close, but not enough

I give you all I’ve got

But you hold back

Every time I reach your heart

Chores

Could’ve been us

But we never said enough

two hearts lost in the dark

Maybe too scared for love

We could’ve been us

We could’ve been us

Verse

You call at midnight just to hear my voice

But both of us are scared to make a choice

You’re always almost saying what you mean

I’m always dreaming ’bout the in-betweens

Pre c

So close, but not enough

I give you all I’ve got

But you hold back

Every time I reach your heart

Chores

Could’ve been us

But we never said enough

Two hearts lost in the dark

Maybe too scared for love

We could’ve been us

We could’ve been us

Bridge

Maybe someday we’ll finally break

The quiet between the steps we never take

But until then we’ll be

A maybe in the dark

A love we never start

Chores

Could’ve been us

But we never said enough

Two hearts lost in the dark

Maybe too scared for love

We could’ve been us

But we got lost

We could’ve been us
