Lyrics
"That Could've Been Me"
by Tom Tognaci
V1
Well, I use to wonder
How it might have been
With a big ole house, four car garage,
more money than I could spend
Living like a king,
In a fantasy where I
would have everything
Everything money could buy
V2
Well, I dont know why
I let this build in me
I knew it was wrong, it wasnt right,
and perhaps a bit crazy
Oh, but there he'd be,
Just some guy on a magazine,
But Id feel the envy
Turning my blue eyes to green
CH1
That couldve been me
Walking with that pretty woman by my side
Looking like that guy whose fortunes just arrived
Living the life that I have surely been denied
And Im all torn inside
Cause that couldve been me
V3
I spent the next ten years
struggling with it all
I had lost my job; then, all the rest,
when the markets took their fall
I couldnt pay the rent,
and the wolves were at my door
I tossed my last cent
in a well wishing for more
V4
While the good Lord moves
in a strange and subtle way
I was stretched beyond the point where I
broke down and began to pray
Thats when I saw him there,
looking bent and out of place
I couldnt help but stare,
as he tried to hide his face
CH2
Yea, that couldve been me
Sitting on that corner with my face in hands
Living like some stray amongst the garbage cans
Looking just like some old man no one understands
I know God has his plans
And that couldve been me
BR
Of all what would have been...
Of all what could have been...
And of all what should have been...
...That couldve been me
V5
I stood frozen in the highlights
of his fate
As I felt an awful burden
lift up from me like a weight
I felt freed inside,
as I turned to walk away
But, I almost died
when I thought I heard him say..
CH3
That couldve been me
Looking like the kind of guy whos got it all
The kind of guy that gets up after theres a fall
Someone you can go to when youre feeling small
And hes there standing tall
And that couldve been me
Great lyrics congratulations on your entry!
