Could Have Been

Key of G


Yes I've been addicted,
To the pain I held in my life.
I've inflicted more wounds on myself,
Cut me deeper than anyone's knife.
Looking into the still black pool,
That my life has become I can see,
I've had no enemies other than me.
So if I'm my only friend,
I can forgive me and start again.
If I'm all that's left me to,
I can find a me that doesn't need you.
And if you love me,
I'll be your warm bed

You can lay on me,
Use my shoulder to cradle your head.
If you don't want me,
I'm the wind that blows around you.
I'm a shadow you walk right through.
You're only going to touch me if I want you to.
But still it's true,
I'll be stone dead in my grave
Before I don't need someone to hold on to.
And it could have been
 


Ii know you're leaving,
Hell you're already gone.
I could find no way,
No handle to hold on.
I know where we've been,
And I just can't go again.
Still there's times I can't help imagining,
The feeling of my fingers on your skin.
And if you want me,
I'll be your best friend,
You can count on me
over and over and over again.
If you don't need me,

I'm the shadow you walk right through.
I'm the wind that blows around you.
But you could reach out and touch me,
If you wanted to
But still it's true,
I'll be stone dead in my grave
Before I don't need someone to hold on to.
And it could have been you

Figure it out for yourself!  I play it different every time! (Oh yeah, and the words change too!  LOL)
