"If I'd Never Been Born" lyrics

Big brown eyes and bushy tail
City girl to country trail
Vows exchanged in the Town Hall
But did you know what you wanted when I came along?

And I know you'd hate me for even thinking of this
Who you'd be without me, a dancer or an actress
I would watch you at the school gates
Waiting for me, day after day

Who she might've been
If I'd never been

Thirty-one, in a party dress
Walked past Dad in a parallel universe
You moved back to Australia
And who knows if you'll ever be a mother

And I know you'd hate me for even thinking of this
Who you'd be without me, a writer or an artist
I would watch you at the school gates
Waiting for me, day after day

Who she might've been
If I'd never been
Born

Who she might have been
If I'd never been
