Could Have Been

Words and Music by John Wolfe Compton

Getting busted in the old saloon
Ever since, you left me in ruin
Where you’ve been, I won’t know again
Kicking around my could have been

I should have seen the light
Instead of staying out all night
Now I know its a sin for the shape I’m in
Kicking around my could have been

The barman is tired of my story
I say that its sad, but its true
All I can say is I’m sorry
Because I’ll never stop thinking of you

There’s tear stains on my pillow
I’m looking out my window sill-o
For the night you come in, my days will begin
Kicking around my could have been
Kicking around my could have been
I’m kicking around my could have been

You Found It!

If the wind will not serve, take to the oars.
