I hear you just got married
took a month long honeymoon
And you were all smiles at the weddin'
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
everynight as I try to sleep
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 musta 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
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
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
waitin' 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
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
I knowww I called
just in time
a bit too late
You know dreams move on
if you wait too long
It took me till now to see
that it could've been me
Standin' 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
Coulda been meee
It coulda been me
Coulda been meee
It coulda been me
Coulda been meee
It coulda been me
