I might have
I thought,
What do I know?
But for a moment,
There was a minute
I thought just for a second
Could have been
Might have been
I thought for a moment it
Too bad,
Sorry about that
Could have been
Might have been
Feel bad about that

The repetition of "could have been" and "might have been" emphasizes the sense of possibility and potential that was never realized.
The opening lines of "I could have, I might have, I thought, what do I know?" suggest a lack of certainty and confidence in the singer's choices. They are grappling with the idea that their own indecision or fear may have held them back from something that could have been great. The momentary glimpse of hope in "there was a minute I thought just for a second maybe it was" shows that they still hold onto the idea of what could have been, even if it's just a faint hope.
