Intro

What have I done?

And why do people run away from what they really want?

 She, she was the one.

I know it now just like a blind man feels the setting sun.

 Once upon a time I had Everything I ever wanted,

And everything I need.

The more she tried to give me, the more I took for granted

her majesty, and I can't believe

 Oh, it's really over now and I've got to live without

the love I'll never have again.

 If this is what losing means, then I've lost everything.

Now I'm the king of might have been

 I'm all alone,

with a hundred percent of nothing now, just a fool upon his throne.

She, she's movin' on.

She's gonna be somebody's everything, and I hope that he knows

that all she ever needed was a chance to be completed

and to feel the light of love.

What shoulda been, what coulda been, doesn't matter now.

She's history and I can't believe

Oh, it's really over now, and I've got to live without

the love I'll never have again.

If this is what losing means, then I've lost Everything.

Now I'm the king of might have, the king of might have been.

 If I could do it all again,

 I would never let it end, I'd fight for us

 If I just had one more chance

Oh, It's really over now, and I've got to live without

The love I'll never have again.

 If this is what losing means, then I've lost everything.

 Now I'm the king of might have,

 The king of might have,

 The king of might have been.
