I might have known a lot of things
Been smiled upon by kings and queens
Had you been aroundPerhaps had you been by my side
My dreams might not have been denied
Had you been aroundI've wasted many years, tasted many tears
And I want to know
Lost on my own before I knew of youI might have heard a sigh
Of someone passing by
Had you been aroundAnd though it seems absurd
I really never heard
A soundUntil that day you came my way
With pleasure I never found
It all might have been
Had you been aroundHad you been around
Perhaps had you been by my side
My dreams might not have been denied
Had you been aroundI've wasted many years, tasted many tears
And I want to know
I'm lost on my own before I knew of youI might have heard a sigh
Of someone passing by
Had you been aroundAnd though it seems absurd
I really never heard
A soundUntil that day you came my way
With pleasure I never found
It all might have been
Had you been aroundOne more time, it all might have been
Had you been around
Do it again, it all might have been
Had you been aroundHad you been around
