What Might Have Been

Story Behind The Song

Not so much a story of Love Departed as a story of Love that Almost (but never quite) Was. A tale of a path not taken, when it probably would be better to have taken it.

Song Description

Really, really sad-sounding, in a beautiful kind of way. An achingly poignant single-note piano melody played over dark, melancholy chords (sounding maybe a little like Chopin) and a lush orchestral background.

Lyrics

Really, really sad-sounding, in a beautiful kind of way. An achingly poignant single-note piano melody played over dark, melancholy chords (sounding maybe a little like Chopin) and a lush orchestral background.

Not so much a story of Love Departed as a story of Love that Almost (but never quite) Was. A tale of a path not taken, when it probably would be better to have taken it.
