What It Might Have Been - Chris Smither

I know you know that we’re through

I know you know what you got to do

Knowin' it, showin' it’s just a part of it

But I got a clue

It ain’t what I know that makes me blue

It’s what I though I knew

I lost a lot of things before you came

I know that losing, that’s just part of the game

And I’m sure that I’ll lose more

But all the same

It ain’t what I lost that makes me sad

It’s what I thought I had

Well it is what it is, let it go

Yeh it ain’t what it was, that’s for sho'

Things will be what they’ll be in spite of me

Or You, even though

It ain’t what it is that’s such a sin

Its what it might have been
