We were young And it was real We might be done But it sure as hell ain't healed You turned off the song right before that last chorus played Guess you and I just weren't on the same page You could've been mine, I could've been yours We could've been draggin' cans drivin' off in this Ford We had this whole town bettin' on you and me But I guess a diamond ring don't mean anythin' It could've been love, but it ain't no more We could've been head in the clouds, instead of out in this storm But when you broke my heart, and you slammed that door Yeah, you went and cut what could've been a life-long story short That piece of land Dad handed down Could've been our home Oh, but it's just an empty field now You closed the book on us right before that chapter Guess we'll never know about "Happy ever after" You could've been mine, I could've been yours We could've been draggin' cans drivin' off in this Ford We had this whole town bettin' on you and me But I guess a diamond ring don't mean anythin' It could've been love, but it ain't no more We could've been head in the clouds, instead of out in this storm But when you broke my heart, and you slammed that door Yeah, you went and cut what could've been a life-long story short Long story short You took a forever kind of future and put it in the past Yeah, the worst thing about parting ways like that Is you could've been mine, I could've been yours We could've been draggin' cans drivin' off in this Ford We had this whole town bettin' on you and me But I guess a diamond ring don't mean anythin' It could've been love, but it ain't no more We could've been head in the clouds, instead of out in this storm But when you broke my heart, and you slammed that door Yeah, you went and cut what could've been a life-long story short Long story short Life-long story short
