Intro

I had friends against the war

 By things they did so well yesterday

 They lived their lives without fortune or thrill

 With nothing very much to say

Pre Chorus:

Always standing in the same old lines

Moving sideways to the march of time

Chorus

What might have been

What might have been

A portrait of my life

No fool would say

You live today

Without a will to survive

Cornered now, what can I do

I'm trapped by what might have been

The great big 'if' that hangs around my neck

Has played its part in all my dreams

Always making the bad seem worse

Living my life reversed

Chorus

Bridge

I know the call that I can't seem to move

Without a little fall from grace

But now I know when I'm down in this mood

It's only me that I have to face

What might have been, yeah

What might have been

What might have been

Always standing in the same old lines

Moving sideways to the march of time
