[opening] He was my soulmate But things didn't work out If only I'd been given The benefit of the doubt [verse 1] The story began A long time ago A stay in the mountains When it began to snow We had the fireplace going To add warmth to the place We cherished the moments And discovered our faith [bridge] Cherish the moments Before they begin to fade [chorus] Things didn't add up From time to time Accusations kept coming But I committed no crime Hard to repair damage The consequences severe Our lack of communication I should've kept you near [verse 2] The story ended A short time ago Whatever I did I just didn't know I always insisted That we should work things out But my love denied me The benefit of the doubt [bridge] Cherish the moments Before they fade away [chorus] Things didn't add up From time to time Accusations kept coming But I committed no crime Hard to repair damage The consequences severe Our lack of communication I should've kept you near [close] He was my soulmate But it just didn't work out I wish I'd been given The benefit of the doubt.
