Maybe I won't make the same mistakes,
maybe I'll treat you just right.
Maybe I'll hear the words you say,
instead of just trying to win the fight.

Maybe I won't let pride stand tall,
won't turn away when things get tough.
Maybe I'll hold you close instead,
when love alone is not enough.

Maybe I'll run toward you first,
before you start to drift away.
Maybe you'd still be waiting there,
if I had begged for you to stay.

Maybe I'd see the hurt you hid,
behind the silence and the sighs.
Maybe I'd ask you how you felt,
instead of just running away.

Maybe I'd choose you every time,
instead of leaving it to fate.
Maybe I'd show up when it mattered,
instead of always being late.

Maybe in another life,
we get to start again.
No broken hearts, no sad goodbyes,
just love that never ends.

But for now, I walk alone,
with memories I can't rewrite.
If not today, if not this time,
see you, my love, in another life.
