Lyrics for What Might Have Been
Sickness and flowers go together Bombing and shelters go together Laughing and hurting go together Finding and keeping go together Canary yellow, mustard yellow Yellow tear stains on old pillows Everyone loves a story About long, long ago Pirates and parrots go together Sticks and carrots go together Loving and leaving go together Lies and believing go together Canary yellow, mustard yellow Yellow tear stains on old pillows Everyone loves a story About far, far away Living and dying go together Business and crying go together Passion and madness go together Yellow and sadness go together Canary yellow, mustard yellow Yellow tear stains on old pillows Everyone loves a story About far, far away Everyone loves a story About long, long ago And what, what might've been
