I could've been a doctor were not for degree
|
I could've been a winner were not for defeat
|
I could've been richer were not for the taxes
|
I could've been a scholar were not for classes
|
I could've been a rebel were not for a cause
|
I could've been employed were not for the boss
|
I could've been loved (x8)
|
|
We could've been artists were not for the music
|
We could've been on time were not for excuses
|
We could've been diamonds were not for the penny
|
We could've been special were not for the many
|
We could've been patient were not for the waiting
|
We could've been committed were not for the stain
|
We could've been loved (x8)
|
|
I still love your views and cup your inner views
|
Got me playing detective searching for some clues
|
I wanted to take you home show you where I've grown
|
Coffee down in Kenya then the swimming Cameron
|
But you're in California working on your script
|
Young and beautiful just want to make the most of it
|
You could've been loved (x8)
|
|
I could've been free were not for the past
|
I could've been first place were in not for the last
