could've been anyone

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

you lost your place in the sun

well

never mind

could've been anyone

your pattern is different

from 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

never mind

it could've been anyone

lost your place in the place

never mind.
