I might have been a singer Who sailed around the world A gambler who wins milions And spent it all on girls I might have been a poet Who walked upon the moon A scientist who would tell the world I discovered something new I might have loved a king Been the one to enter war A criminal who drinks champain And never could be caught But among your books Among your clothes Among the noise and fuss I've let it go I can't stop and catch my breath And look no further, for hapiness And I will not turn again Cause my heart, has found it's home Everyone I'll never meet And the friends I wont now make The adventures that they could have been And the risks I'll never take But among your books... I can't stop and catch my breath...
