It Could Have Been Me |
| Sounds of people’s whispers saying |
| «She's a pretty bride; |
| you’re such a lucky man» |
| I smile and blink the tears away |
| And find the proper words to say |
| While aching with the pain they just can’t understand |
| It could have been me |
| Wearing that dress of white |
| It could have been me |
| Holding you close tonight |
| It could have been me |
| Giving your children life |
| Why can’t it be me who’ll be your wife? |
| Now we’re all gathered together |
| You vow your love for worse or better |
| Lift her veil and kiss her with a tender glow |
| Then leading her back up the aisle |
| I try to meet your eyes and smile |
| But all the time my heart is breaking so |
| It could have been me |
| Wearing that dress of white |
| It could have been me |
| Holding you close tonight |
| It could have been me |
| Giving your children life |
| Why can’t it be me who’ll be your wife? |
| They toast the lovely bride and groom |
| And as you leave the noisy room |
| They say that it’s my turn to catch the bride’s bouquet |
| And as the crowd goes streaming past |
| And someone says «He's hers at last» |
| I hold my pretty flowers and slowly walk away |
| It could have been me |
| Wearing that dress of white |
| It could have been me |
| Holding you close tonight |
| It could have been me |
| Giving your children life |
| Why can’t it be me who’ll be your wife? |
