I might have been a singer

Who sailed around the world

A gambler who wins milions

And spent it all on girls

I might have been a poet

Who walked upon the moon

A scientist who would tell the world

I discovered something new

I might have loved a king

Been the one to enter war

A criminal who drinks champain

And never could be caught

But among your books

Among your clothes

Among the noise and fuss

I've let it go

I can't stop and catch my breath

And look no further, for hapiness

And I will not turn again

Cause my heart, has found it's home

Everyone I'll never meet

And the friends I wont now make

The adventures that they could have been

And the risks I'll never take

But among your books...

I can't stop and catch my breath...
