1987 FM | The Love I Never Had - Ryan Mercer

Have you ever wondered how your life might have changed if you'd simply walked across the room? Most of us remember someone we never really knew. A smile, a glance, a moment that quietly stayed with us long after it was gone. There was no relationship, no goodbye—just one chance that slipped away. "The Love I Never Had" is about that feeling. It's not a song about heartbreak. It's about the people we never got to know, the moments we never lived, and the questions that never find an answer. Some people come into our lives and leave. Others never even enter them, yet somehow they stay with us forever. Maybe the greatest love story isn't the one that ended. Maybe it's the one that never began. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The Love I Never Had - Ryan Mercer I saw you across the room On an early autumn night You smiled, then looked away I never found the words You left before I found the nerve To ask you for your name I watched you walk out that door And wished I'd made a change It was only one night One chance I let go Some things stay with you Even when you'll never know You were the love I never had The one I let slip by If I'd only walked up to you You might have been mine You were the love I never had The one I can't forget Not a love that ended Just a love we never met I've loved and I've been loved Another autumn came around But every now and then I think of you again I wonder where you are And if you ever knew There was a man that night Who wanted to talk to you Maybe you were waiting Maybe you were not I'll never know the answer And that's what stays with me You were the love I never had The one I let slip by If I'd only walked up to you You might have been mine You were the love I never had The one I can't forget Not a love that ended Just a love we never met If I could go back I'd walk right up to you I'd ask you for a dance And see what you'd say Maybe you'd say yes Maybe you'd say no At least I'd know the answer And I'd finally let it go You were the love I never had The one I let slip by If I'd only walked up to you You might have been mine Now I don't wonder where you are Or what became of you I only wonder, once in a while What I never got to know On an early autumn night I still remember you ──────────────────────── For those who have asked where to find the music beyond YouTube: 🎵 Spotify https://open.spotify.com/artist/6cCNd... 🎵 YouTube Music    / ryan mercer - topic   🎧 Also available on Apple Music, Amazon Music, Deezer, TIDAL, Pandora, iHeartRadio, and other major streaming platforms. #RyanMercer #1987FM
