Mame movie - IF HE WALKED INTO MY LIFE lyrics
rate me<br>
Mame:<br>
Where is that boy with the bugle?<br>
My little love was always my big romance;<br>
Where's that boy with the bugle?<br>
And why did I ever buy him those damn long pants?<br>
Did he need a stronger hand?<br>
Did he need a lighter touch?<br>
Was I soft or was I tough?<br>
Did I give enough?<br>
Did I give too much?<br>
At the moment when he needed me,<br>
Did I ever turn away?<br>
Would I be there when he called,<br>
If he walked into my life today.<br>
Were his days a little dull?<br>
Were his nights a little wild?<br>
Did I overstate my plan?<br>
Did I stress the man?<br>
And forget the child.<br>
And there must have been a million things.<br>
That my heart forgot to say.<br>
Would I think of one or two,<br>
If he walked into my life today.<br>
Should I blame the times I pampered him,<br>
Or blame the times I bossed him;<br>
What a shame!<br>
I never really found the boy,<br>
Before I lost him.<br>
Were the years a little fast?<br>
Was his world a little free?<br>
Was there too much of a crowd?<br>
All too lush and loud and not enough for me.<br>
Though I'll ask myself my whole life long,<br>
What went wrong along the way;<br>
Would I make the same mistakes<br>
If he walked into my life today?<br>
If that boy with the bugle,<br>
If he walked into my life today.<br>
<br>
Patrick:<br>
Where is that girl with the promise?<br>
The girl who tried to show me what love could be;<br>
Where is that girl with the promise?<br>
And why do I feel the someone to blame is me?<br>
Did she need a stronger hand?<br>
Did she need a lighter touch?<br>
Was I soft or was I tough?<br>
Did I give enough?<br>
Did I give too much?<br>
At the moment that she needed me,<br>
Did I ever turn away?<br>
Would I be there when she called,<br>
If she walked into my life today.<br>
Did she mind the lonely nights?<br>
Did she count the empty days?<br>
Was I silent, was I cold?<br>
Was I quick to scold?<br>
Was I slow to praise?<br>
And there must have been a million things.<br>
That my heart forgot to say.<br>
Would I think of one or two,<br>
If she walked into my life today.<br>
Should I blame the times I pampered her,<br>
Or blame the times I bossed her;<br>
What a shame!<br>
I never really found the girl,<br>
Before I lost her.<br>
Were the years a little fast?<br>
Was her world a little free?<br>
Was there too much of a crowd?<br>
All too lush and loud and not enough for me.<br>
Though I'll ask myself my whole life long,<br>
What went wrong along the way;<br>
Would I make the same mistakes<br>
If she walked into my life today?<br>
If that girl with the promise,<br>
If he walked into my life today.<br>
