Billy Ray Cyrus - Could've Been Me lyrics

rate me

(Monty Powell/Reed Nielsen)

I hear you just got married

Had 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 mailman 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 tought about standing up

I told John he must've 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

It could have been me standing there with you

It could have been me and my dreams coming true

But those dreams move on if you wait too long

It took me till now to see it could have 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

It could have been me standing there with you

It could have been me and my dreams coming true

But those dreams move on if you wait too long

It took me till now to see it could have been me

Oh I called her just in time to be too late

You know those dreams move on if you wait too long

It took me till now to see (it could've been me)

It could have been me standing there with you

It could have been me and my dreams coming true

But those dreams move on if you wait too long

It took me till now to see it could have been me

It could have been me...
