Lyrics
What used to be
Hillary Chapman, copyright, 2010
Tempo 75
Verse:
I can still feel that morning sun wakin' us up on the bed of my truck
Wrapped in a blanket, kissin', laughin', our whole lives in front of us
But there still were so many things that I just didn't know
About a woman's heart and true love, how could I have let you go
Chorus:
Now I'm a man who'd / give the whole damn world to /
Be the one who holds you / but all I can do is dream /
That it's just you and me in a love song / your body close / bob marley on /
Summer dress slidin' off/ and then I'm lost in you lovin' me
That's what could have been / and what used to be.
Verse:
Do you still smile / when the summer rain / splashes down on your face?
Can you still change / the whole world / with just one night by the fireplace?
I can still see you beautiful / in a white t shirt and jeans
Smilin' sayin' / you loved me/ God I had everything
Bridge:
You're long gone but when I'm alone I go back
And I'm talkin' to you sayin' do you know that
