Could've Been Me

I hear you just got married

Took a month long honeymoon

And you were all smiles at the wedding

And you cried when you kissed the groom.



I got no invitation

I guess the mail man didn't bring it to me

But I see the whole thing in slow motion

Every night as I try to sleep.



My buddy John said you looked real pretty

And you acted like you were in love

He said the preacher asked for objections

And he thought about standing up.



I told John he must have been crazy

'Cause you were just about to say I do

He Just gave me a wink and said all he could think

Is it could've been me with you.



Chorus:

It could've been me standing there with you

It could've been me and my dreams coming true

But those dreams move on if you wait too long

It took me to now to see that it could've been me.



I don't guess I ever told you

That I went out and bought you a ring

I even carried it around in my pocket

Waiting to say the right thing.



I pulled it out the other day

But the diamond had lost it's shine

Well, I know how it feels 'cause my eyes grow dim

When I think you could've been mine.



Chorus:

It could've been me standing there with you

It could've been me and my dreams coming true

But those dreams move on if you wait too long

It took me to now to see that it could've been me.



I Know I've come just in time a bit too late

You know dreams move on if you wait too long

It took me to now to see that



Chorus:

It could've been me standing there with you

It could've been me and my dreams coming true

But those dreams move on if you wait too long

It took me to now to see that it could've been me.



It could have been me (It could have been me)

It could have been me (It could have been me)

It could have been me (It could have been me)



It could have been me...
