Could've Been Me Lyrics

I hear you just got married
Took a month long honeymoon
And you were all smiles at the wedding
And you cried when you kissed the groomI 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 sleepMy 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 upI told John, he must've been crazy
'Cause you were just about to say I do
He just gave me a wink and said all he could think
Is it could've been me with youIt could have been me standing there with you
It could have 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 have been meI don't guess I ever told you
That I went out and bought you a ring
I even carried it around in my pocket

Waiting to say the right thingI 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've been mineIt could have been me standing there with you
It could have 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 have been meOh I called her just in time to be too late
You know those dreams move on if you wait too long
It took me till now to see that it could've been meIt could have been me standing there with you
It could have 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 have been meIt could have been me
It could have been me
It could have been me
