《Could Have Been You》的歌詞如下:
It could have been you,It could have been you
一切都可能只因為你
Who's been getting all my phone calls?
電話響過究竟是誰?
Did you steal my keys or leave me with the blues?
你是否竊走我的心 留下我一片灰暗
My old familiar home has lost its charm
那個家對我來說不再有往日的魔力
Who's at the door? Is it my old flame?
誰站在門外 難道舊情又復燃
Whoever it is,they ain't bringing me round
無論何人 不論為何
What have I said,or what have I done?
我究竟做了什麼
You've left me lonely again,and it could have been you
你再次留下我孤獨一人 本可讓我幸福是你的陪伴
Every time my phone rings I don't know what to say
每次電話響起 我都不知道要說什麼
All of my hopes and dreams,it could have been you
我的所有希望和夢想 原來都只是為你
Who's been slipping me the valium?
是誰悄悄給我鎮定劑?
Or is it just my mind that's going crazy?
是我精神錯亂還是真有此事
My dreams of the future are fading fast
對未來的憧憬瞬間灰飛煙滅
I'm so confused,don't know what to think
我如此困惑 不知如何面對
Who's at the door? Is it my baby?
誰站在門外 難道是我的寶貝嗎?
Whoever it is,they ain't bringing me round
無論何人 不論為何
What have I said,or what have I done?
我究竟做了什麼
You've left me lonely again,and it could have been you
你再次留下我孤獨一人 本可讓我幸福是你的陪伴
It could have been you...一切可能只因為你...
Why can't I let go of the past?
為何我總是放不下過去呢?
What happened to my feelings for you?
對你的感覺都到哪兒去了呢?
Oh, no,not another scene again,it could have been you
噢不 又上演什麼鬧劇 原來都是因為你...
