I could have been a sailor, I could have been a cook
A real live lover, could have been a book
I could have been a signpost, I could have been a clock
As simple as a kettle, steady as a rock
I could be, here and now
I would be, I should be, but how, how, hm, oh, oh, hm
I could have been
One of these things first
Hm, hm, hm
(One of these things first)
I could have been your pillar, I could have been your door
I could have stayed beside you, could have stayed for more, hm, hm, hmm
Could have been your statue, I could have been your friend
A whole long lifetime, could have been the end, hm, hm, hmm
I could've been, yours so true, oh, hey, hey, hey
I would be, I should be, through and through, girl
Oh, oh
I could have been
One of these things first
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
(One of these things first)
Hey, hey, hey
(One of these things first)
Hey, hey, hey
(One of these things first)
Hm, hm, hm, hmm
(One of these things first)
Ha, ha, ha, ha, haa
(One of these things first)
Hey, hey, hey
(One of these things first)
Hey, hey, hey
(One of these things first)
Hm, hm, hm, hmm
