Might Have Been lyrics

by

Leonard Cohen


[Verse 1]
I break away from every situation
Like this one most times, baby
But since you been around here, I've given in, my dear
To your captivation daily

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well I'm not the type who gets voted most likely to be Victimized by those old butterflies
But you're the exception, your love is infectious
The fever is climbing high, oh I

[Chorus]
I hope you don't mind if I fall asleep on your shoulder
Now, turn out the lights and let the night begin
I hope it's alright, if you're still mine when we're older
Cause I won't spend another day wondering what might have been
No, no, no

[Verse 2]
I was so cynical just inconvincible
Nobody seemed worth trusting
But sure enough, just when I'd near given up
You appeared there among the destruction, yeah

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Well now its official I've lost my initial suspicions
And skepticism, yeah
You got me caving and feeling the craving
I see now what I'd been missing, yeah, oh, oh, yeah
[Chorus]
I hope you don't mind if I fall asleep on your shoulder
Now, turn out the lights and let the night begin
I hope it's alright, if you're still mine when we're older
Cause I won't spend another day wondering what might have been

Oh, yeah

[Bridge]
You got my permission to break the tradition, yeah
No limited editions this is a persistent
Change of disposition, no more inhibitions
Cause I don't want to spend my life wishing

No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
Don't you know?

[Chorus]
I hope you don't mind if I fall asleep on your shoulder
Now, turn out the lights and let the night begin
I hope it's alright, if you're still mine when we're older
Cause I won't spend another day wondering, oh well

I hope you don't mind if I fall asleep on your shoulder
Now, turn out the lights and let the night begin
I hope it's alright, if you're still mine when we're older
Cause I won't spend another day wondering
I won't spend another day wondering
I won't spend another day wondering
What might have been

[Outrp]
No, no, no, no, no
Might have been, baby
Well, might have been
