"Things That Might Have Been" lyrics

The Gregg Allman Band Lyrics

"Things That Might Have Been"

Lately more than ever now
My mind keeps drilling back in time
And again I find myself dreaming
About the way things might've been
These days, they come, and go so fast
And I can't believe, my heart will ever last
A whole lifetime
Living here without you

Leaning back and laughing
Such an easy thing to sell
Going through the motions
What a show
Suddenly this feeling
Grabbed me by my heart
And it won't let go
And I need you so

Still torn between your cheating heart
There's a damn good chance
That you'll tear mine all apart
I could spend my life or a wonder
About the way things might have been

So wrap me up, and take me home
Tell me one more time, that I ain't doing no wrong
Oh, tell me, baby tell me
Is this the way things should have been?

Leaning back and laughing
Such an easy thing to sell
Going through the motions
What a show
Suddenly this feeling
Grabbed me by my heart
And it won't let go
