Mame movie - IF HE WALKED INTO MY LIFE lyrics

<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>
