"Could It Have Been Me?" lyrics

"Could It Have Been Me?"

So the story goes, I wear my nicest clothes
Pull up to the party, wait for you to show
Think this will be the night everything will change
Wake up on my sofa, everything the same
Arms empty, heart heavy
I see you're movin' out next week
In your Chevy with somebody
And I can't help wonderin'

Could it have been me sittin' next to you?
In your dad's old beat-up Chevy
No clue where we're heading, mm-mm-mm
Could it have been me singing to the moon?
Loving you so heavy
Fallin' like Tom Petty
Could it have been?
Could it have been?

I guess I'll never know what it's like to hold you
Always thought it'd work itself out in the end
If life is like a movie, where's my happy ending?
This isn't what I wish, but it's what I get
It's too lonely with nobody
I can see the irony
'Cause I'm happy that you're happy
Still, I can't help wonderin'

Could it have been me sittin' next to you?
In your dad's old beat-up Chevy
No clue where we're heading, mm-mm-mm
Could it have been me singing to the moon?
Loving you so heavy
Fallin' like Tom Petty
Could it have been? (Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Could it have been? (Mm)

So Chrissy, just last week
I swear I felt your mercy
When you were around me
Don't tell me it was all imaginary

Could it have been me sittin' next to you?
In your dad's old beat-up Chevy
No clue where we're heading, hey
Could it have been me singing to the moon?
Loving you so heavy
We're falling like Tom Petty
Could it have been me?
Could it have been?
