Things That Might Have Been
These precious words Daddy said to me
As I boarded the Greyhound, to Tennessee
Never be afraid son, to follow your dreams
'Cause you don’t want to grow old, wondering, about
Things that might have been, could have been,
Should have been, would have been,
Always find a way
To believe in each tomorrow and trust your heart each day
Things that might have been, could have been,
Should have been, would have been
Don’t stop till you find
That shooting star you’re searching for
That just might change your life
"Hope you understand," I told her on the phone
I never meant to hurt you, but I can’t come home
I’m going to stay right here, and take my best shot
'Cause if I give it up now, I’ll lay awake dreaming about
Things that might have been, could have been,
Should have been, would have been
I’ve got to find a way
To believe in each tomorrow and trust my heart each day
Things that might have been, could have been,
Should have been, would have been
Won’t stop till I find
That shooting star I’ve been searching for that just might change my life
Ooh, I came here on a wing and a prayer
To find out how good I really am
I’m keeping my dreams and my faith alive
With one lucky break I know I can fly
Oh I will fly
Things that might have been, could have been,
Should have been, would have been
I’m going to find a way
To believe in each tomorrow and trust my heart each day
Things that might have been, could have been,
Should have been, would have been
Won’t stop till I find
My shooting star I’ve been searching for that just might change my life
Might have been, could have been,
Should have been, would have been
I’m reaching for the sky
I’m certain I will fly
I’m reaching for the sky
