standing there your laughter's caught in midnight air. 
Paint on your jeans like stars dot the sky. 
Can’t help but watch when you pass. 
My fault for not moving as fast. 

We could’ve made a pretty pair. 
You would’ve been my Fred Astaire. 
Shame it ended before it began. 
Now I wonder what could’ve been. 

She stole you right out of my crib. 
Can’t take back what I never did. 
You said she was never on your mind, 
not till the end of homecoming night. 

Sitting there your hands held in hers, not mine. 
I watch your blue eyes shine in the light. 
Can’t help but wish they’d meet mine. 
Seems now just isn’t our time. 

She stole you right out of my crib. 
Can’t take back what I never did. 
You said she was never on your mind, 
not till the end of homecoming night.

And this would be easy if you two were wrong, but it’s not true she’s perfect for you. 
This would be easy if she were a shrew, but she’s so sweet like a summer breeze. 
That should be me you look at that way. 
It breaks my heart to watch you love her. 
And you love her. 
You love her. 
Not me…

We would’ve made a pretty pair. 
You could’ve been my Fred Astaire. 
Shame it ended before it began. 
Now I wonder what could’ve been.
Do you ever wonder what could’ve been?

Could've Been Demo - Piers

Draw a world where
We can go
We’ll build a cabin that we can call our home 

So when you’re not here 
We can still be near
We won’t have to be 
Five hundred and fifty-six 
Kilometres away

The air is sweet there
And the sun is warm
The mountains keep us safe and 
The ocean’s never bored 

So when you’re not here 
We can still be near 
And we don’t have to be 
Five hundred and fifty-six 
Kilometres away 

We’ll sit on the porch and watch the waves come in at night 
Wake in the morning to you sleeping on my right
Whenever it’s cloudy the sun will part the storm 
We can escape to the little paradise we’ve made 

So draw a world where 
We can go
We’ll build a cabin that we can call our home 

So when you’re not here 
We can still be near 
We won’t have to be 
Five hundred and fifty-six 
Kilometres away

You're the sun,
lighting up my moon, all the flowers on my rock grow to face you
you're a cool breeze on a stale summer day, you fill my lungs with air when I can't breathe 

Your laugh could cure a million hurts 
your hands could build a universe 
look at me and time stands still 
to me you are a work of art, you send me dancing through the stars,
you're a free bird in your heart
so I'll love you from afar, until you want me in your arms

Frozen lines, on a silver lake
there's beauty in destruction, don't you think
you're the sun and I'm just the moon, you rise as I fall
 I'll always miss you 

Your laugh could cure a million hurts 
your hands could build a universe 
look at me and time stands still 
to me you are a work of art, you send me dancing through the stars,
you're a free bird in your heart
so I'll love you from afar until you want me in your arms

and I would never try to cage you, clip your wings, pin you down 
if you're a wildflower I'll leave you growing, leave you wild
if you love 'em let 'em go
let 'em blossom let 'em grow 
we'll go our own ways, our paths may cross one day
one smile from you and I'll know 

that your laugh could cure a million hurts 
hands could build a universe 
look at me and time stands still 
to me you are a work of art, you send me dancing through the stars,
you're a free bird in your heart
I've always loved you from afar
I'll always hold you in my heart 
so just one day before we part, won't you hold me in your arms
just one day before we part hold me in your arms
for one day...

bruises is about being betrayed by someone you trusted, and realizing you don’t have to forgive or fix it — sometimes it’s enough to just walk away. It’s about honesty, vulnerability, and  moving on, even if your bruises are still fading ;).
