Could've Been Me

[Verse 1] I hear you just got married took a month long honeymoon A new love smiles at the wedding 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 [Verse 2] 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 thought about standing up I told John he must been crazy cause you were just about to say I do He just gave me a wink and said all he could think was it could've been me with you [Chorus] It could've been me standing there with you It could've 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've been me [Verse 3] I don't guess I ever told you that I went out and bought you a ring I even carry 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 have been mine [Chorus] [Bridge] I know I called just in time a bit too late You know dreams move on if you wait too long [Chorus] [Outro] It could've been me standing there with you
