You could have driven into someone else's driveway You could have tried to find the bridge another day I could have gone off to the fair Or locked the door, or washed my hair And in a way, that would be better We could have chosen to ignore what we were feeling We could have prayed to make the wanting go away But what we did Is that we loved And love is always better I could have gone with you and left behind the cornfields I could have seen a world like none I'd ever known I could have tied my dreams to yours And slept beside you on the moors And who can say? That might be better I could have not been where my children turned for answers And never seen what they've become now that they're grown But what I did Is that I loved And love is always better It is hard It is insane To place one love Above another But what a choice! And what a gift! And what a blessing! I could have never known That love like this existed But then you kissed me And you left and then I knew But what is true Is that we loved And that I loved And that I love And I will always love And love Is always better
