Kaylyn Sahs - If We Would've Made It

I’m usually the one who’s optimistic
But I never really thought we had a chance
So when you started comin’ ‘round I almost missed it
But now all you gotta do is take my hand
You sat me down on the front porch
And said there was somethin’ on your mind
I smiled and gave you that look and said
I ain’t gonna wait all night
There was somethin’ bout the look in your eyes
Made the future look twice as bright
And my heart was saying this is your chance, boy, you better take it
Maybe we’d have made it work
Maybe we’d have crashed and burned
But when the memory comes back now I just can’t escape it
Because I never found out if we would’ve made it
It’s been a couple years since I’ve thought about it
I’ve done a lot of growing up and moving on
I’ve got a new big city dream and a new man next to me
Isn’t that what every girl wants
Well I ran into one of your friends
And he said you were doing alright
It took my breath how just like that
I could see you there that night
When there was somethin’ bout the look in your eyes
Made the future look twice as bright
And my heart was saying this is your chance, boy, you better take it
Maybe we’d have made it work
Maybe we’d have crashed and burned
But when the memory comes back now I just can’t escape it
Because I never found out if we would’ve made it
When I think back on all the mistakes and memories
Sometimes I wish I had just been the brave one and carried
The courage that it takes to just take your hand and risk it again
There was somethin’ bout the look in your eyes
Made the future look twice as bright
And my heart was saying this is your chance, boy, you better take it
Maybe we’d have made it work
Maybe we’d have crashed and burned
But when the memory comes back now I just can’t escape it
Because I never found out if we would’ve made it
If we would've made it
