That Could Have Been Me
Todd Rundgren
[Intro] (2x) [Verse] I thought I was your super girl But you had somethin’ else in mind You promised a place in your world for me But it’s so cold and undefined If there’s somethin’ I’ve overlooked I just don’t know what it could be I’ve got to finally close the book on us Not even that you’d do for me [Chorus] But I will swallow my pride (What will be will be) And you’ll roll over at night (Tell me what you see) That empty pillow by your side (That could have been me) That could have been me [Verse] It’s like you’ll always mean to me More than I’ll ever mean to you And when I should’ve broken free I was willingly your fool I can see it in your eyes I should simply walk away After all I compromised I know you won’t hear me anyway [Chorus] Oh and I will swallow my pride (What will be will be) And you’ll roll over at night (Tell me what you see) That empty pillow by your side (That could have been me) That could have been me That could have been me Oh and I will swallow my pride (What will be will be) And you’ll roll over at night (Tell me what you see) That empty pillow by your side (That could have been me) That could have been me Oh and I will swallow my pride (What will be will be) And you’ll roll over at night (Tell me what you see) That empty pillow by your side (That could have been me) That could have been me
