Mame - If He Walked Into My Life lyrics
rate meMame:<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.
