It's hard to believe
That one night brought me here
If I'd never said that word

I'd have never wasted all these years
My friends say think of all that I'd have missed
If we's never met

They don't know that's the stuff
I've been trying to forget


If I'd never gone to Dallas
If I'd never lose track of time
If I'd never missed my plane

Had to stay another night
If I'd never opened up my hotel door
Just as you walked by

I'd have never said hello
You'd have never said goodbye


It's been three weeks
Twenty one days without a word
I guess if you were coming back

I'd have already heard
I keep thinking about all the things
That I wish I'd never done

It's so clear to me now
I can name them one by one


If I'd never gone to Dallas
If I'd never lost track of time
If I'd never missed my plane

Had to stay another night
If I'd never opened up my hotel door
Just as you walked by

I'd have never said hello
You'd have never said goodbye


It could have all been different
Well,there's no way of knowing
But I'm sure today

It's safe to say
My heart would not be broken


If I'd never gone to Dallas
If I'd never lost track of time
If I'd never missed my plane

Had to stay another night
If I'd never opened up my hotel door
Just as you walked by

I'd have never said hello
You'd have never said goodbye


You'd have never said goodbye
You'd never said goodbye
