Could’ve Been Us Lyrics by Jordi Baizan

Could’ve Been Us
© 2017-2018 Jordi Baizan (ASCAP)
Monday morning rush on the Uptown Line
Bodies press and sway, the train car rumbles and whines
Tired of staring at the phone, I looked up
I saw lipstick on the lid of a coffee cup
The cheekbone scar, the lotus tattoo were clues to solve the mystery of you
At Columbus Circle, you turned to get off
I couldn’t help wondering if it could’ve been us, could’ve been us
Later that year in the neighborhood store
You were checking out just one register over
I noticed the tomatoes, the nectarines, your skin
And that guy that you were with, who was more than just a friend
The way you looked into in his eyes was like morphine for pain
The brush of your fingers like a warm summer rain
The two of you fit like a hand in a glove
I couldn’t help wondering if it could’ve been us, could’ve been us
Grown-ups aren’t supposed to be lost in childish reverie
But maybe daydreams teach us what we really need
We got a little snow.  Took Jack out for a walk
I saw you standing on a front stoop, arms wrapped around a box
You lugged it down the stairs, to the back of a van
It was clear to me that Brooklyn was no longer in your plans
A voice came from the front seat, “Ok Jessica, let’s drive”
You smiled as you passed me on the passenger side
I mustered, “Have a good one”. The engine started up
I couldn’t help wondering if it could have been us
I can’t help wondering if it could’ve been us, could’ve been us
