Jayson Arendt - Could've Been Lyrics

A Skoal can and a Bush light, a truck out by the lake
You gave all that you could give, but I came around too late
A music man is a loaded gun, full of powder and lead
To the girl that could've been
The one to keep me home on a Friday night
And dance with me in the pale moonlight
To be there for me through thick and thin
To teach our kids to say sir and ma'am
And dig our roots into our own land
If only I'd seen it way back then
You wouldn't be the girl that could've been
The way you pulled your long blonde hair, out of your sky blue eyes
No matter how hard I tried, I can't get it out of my mind
I'm losing sleep thinking about, every text I want to send
To the girl that could've been
The one to keep me home on a Friday night
And dance with me in the pale moonlight
To be there for me through thick and thin
To teach our kids to say sir and ma'am
And dig our roots into our own land
If only I'd seen it way back then
You wouldn't be the girl that could've been
Well honey I know I've done you wrong
And by now you've probably moved on
But could you spare this old boy one last chance
To tell you everything I've planned
I'll stay home with you every Friday night
I'll dance with you anytime you like
I'll be there for you through thick and thin
We'll teach our kids to say sir and ma'am
And dig our roots into our own land
I might not have seen it way back then
But if you give me one last chance
You won't be the girl that could've been
You won't be the girl
That could've been
