Could've been me, could've been you
How many times have I said I've just had one or two
It's a sobering thought, it's a sobering sight
How like a bad, bad dream you can lose everything on a careless night
Be the one who lives, be the one who's gone
Be the mother whose heart has to somehow go on, but she'll leave

Chorus
