(Track 6 - Time 3:45)
Saw you again last night at the Sunset Grill
But you didn't see me
You looked so happy with that friend you said was just a friend
Maybe you changed your mind
About all that space you needed desperately
One day you'll see
That you could've had me, could've had me yeah
You'll wake up all alone and be sorry
I'm spending lots of time reading
All those books that just sat on my shelf
Calling up friends who haven't heard from me in quite a while
I'm learning lots of things about life and love
And liking myself
Finally getting by without you
One day you'll see
That you could've had me, could've had me yeah
You'll wake up and notice something's missing
But I'll be free
And you could've had me, could've had me yeah
You could had me to yourself
All to yourself
What's done is done and life goes on
But it's such a shame that you couldn't see
It could've been you, it could've been you and me
One day you'll see
That you could've had me, could've had me baby
You'll wake up and notice something's missing
When you wake up I'll be free
And you could've had me, could've had me yeah
You could've had me to yourself
I saw you again last night at the Sunset Grill
But you didn't see me
In 'You Could', Lace sings about a former lover whom she sees again at the Sunset Grill, a bar or restaurant. The lyrics express feelings of regret and frustration towards the former lover for not seeing Lace's worth and ending the relationship. The opening lines set the scene for the rest of the song, with Lace watching her ex-lover enjoying the company of another and possibly regretting ending things with her. The chorus of the song is a warning to the former lover, suggesting that they will one day realize the mistake they made in letting her go.
Although the song is about a failed relationship, there is a sense of empowerment and growth embedded throughout. Lace sings about how she is "learning lots of things about life and love" and "liking" herself, indicating a newfound independence and self-love. The final lines of the song highlight Lace's acceptance of what has happened, accepting that what's done is done, but still hoping that the former lover realizes the mistake they made.
