Cantona

I could have been Eric Cantona

If not for that girl and my aching heart

Here I am, overweight and under-dressed

Bathing in some alternative success

I could have been the leading goal scorer

If not for that girl and her snake like lure

I fell in love, I can’t explain what happened

But I can't play with all of these emotions

I could have sailed across the seven seas

And now there’s talk of us having seven kids

Don’t get me wrong, it’s all ok with me and I kind of like it

But I could have been Eric Cantona, he’s a movie star

Where would I be without you by my side

Top of the league but not diversified

I just want you to know, I'm already there

And I'm finding it hard to compare

When this love’s too much for me to take

I could have been Eric Cantona

If not for that girl and my aching heart

Here I am, overweight and under-dressed

Bathing in some alternative success
