As I think about the day That has gone by All that I can seem to do Is just lie down and cry
But then I say to myself Why be like a plastic shelf Be strong and brave Not someone's slave I needed someone by my side Behind this someone I could hide But it seems too late I just have to face this fate
It coulda been you It coulda, woulda, shoulda been you To face the fear With one so dear It coulda, woulda, shoulda been you It coulda been you
Writing down these very words Brings me out in tears Cos everything I think about Brings out all my fears
But the I say to myself You've got to help yourself To someone who's alone And soaked to the bone I'll bring you to me And soon we'll be free From all the pain Of the morning rain
But will it be you I wanna, wanna, want it to be you To help me To be free I wanna, wanna, want it to be you But will it be you
How many times does I have to say Don't do this to me, say that you'll stay So I don't have to go through the pain In the morning rain
I hope it'll be you I'm hoping, wishing, dreaming it'll be you Face the fear with me Dream the dream with me I'm hoping, wishing, dreaming it'll be you Please let it be you
