It`s so hard not to blame you
it`s hard not to put all the blame on you
`cause you knew from the start
there was one little part you would not let through
I`m sure there were even moments when you thought
You might someday finish what you`d begun -
but that could`ve been anyone
could`ve been anyone
I lost my place in the sun
well, never mind
it could`ve been anyone.
So we all make mistakes
it just figures you`d make me the biggest one
I was saving it up
now it`s spent and I don`t know
what I spent it on
now I find if you try hard enough
you can wear it down `til it`s just about gone -
`til you could`ve been anyone
you could`ve been anyone
lost your place in the sun
well, never mind
could`ve been anyone.
Your pattern is different
than what it implies
the words may be true but
I realize -
it isn`t description so much as disguise.
Don`t worry, you can learn to live without
you`ve got a lifetime of that to draw upon
and anyway -
it could`ve been anyone
you lost your place in the sun
lost your place in the sun
oh, you lost your place in the sun
well, never mind
it could`ve been anyone
never mind
never mind
(I think that`s enough now)
