I smile , you laugh, I look away
I sigh, you ask me why, I say,
It's ok and I am just feeling down
Your hand on mine I hear the words...
If only love had found us first, our lives would be different
So I stand and wait
I am just a man
Where would we be now baby, if we found each other first
Where would we be now baby,
And now I must confess
That I am a sinking ship
I'm anchored by the weight of my heart cause its filled with these feelings
I keep my true thought locked beside my hearts black box
It wont be found, it wont be found, through the smoke or the wreckage
So I crash and burn
I got a lot of things to learn
Where would we be now baby, if we found each other first
What would you do now darling, if I said these simple words
I'll wait, I'll wait...As long as you want
Where would we be now baby
I'll wait
I'll wait
Where would we be now baby, if we found each other first
What would you do now darling, if I said these simple words
I'll wait, I'll wait...As long as you want.
Where would we be now baby
I'll wait
I'll wait

For me this is about a boy who is wondering about how his life would be with that one girl, his big love. Maybe she's in a relationship and he's too late because he never told her how he feels.
Or they once were in love but then one of them had to go away and now they're missing and still loving each other. They never used the time they had, when they were together until it was too late.
