She Could've Been Mine lyrics

I remember summer 1993 She was tall and blonde and tan and man, she was all in love with me She started talkin' 'bout our future and it scared me half to death So I ran away but to this day her memory takes my breath You should've seen her smile You should've heard her laugh And oh the way her eyes would dance When she brushed her hair back [Chorus] She could've been mine She would've been in another place and time And now and then I go there in my mind She would've been She should've been She could've been mine Home for the holidays, a friend's party New Year's Eve I turned around and found familiar blue eyes staring back at me A little girl came runnin' up and took her by the hand And a memory in miniature said, "Mommy, who's that man?" You should've seen her little smile You should've heard her little laugh Oh the way her eyes just danced When she brushed her hair back
