You got a smile so bright
You know you could have been a candle
I`m holding you so tight
You know you could have been a handle
The way you swept me off my feet
You know you could`ve been a broom
And babe you smell so sweet
You know you could`ve been some perfume
(Chorus)
Well you could of been anything that you wanted to
I can tell
The way you do the things you do
As pretty as you are
You know you could`ve been a flower
If good looks were minutes
You know you could have been an hour
The way you stole my heart
You know you could have been a crook
And baby your so smart
You know you could have been a school book
(Chorus)
Well you could of been .......(Etc)
You make my life so rich
You know you could`ve been some money
And baby you`re so sweet
You know you could have been some honey
(Chorus)
Well you could of been .......(Etc)
As pretty as you are
You know you could`ve been a flower
If good looks were minutes
You know you could have been an hour
The way you stole my heart
You know you could have been a crook
And baby your so smart
You know you could have been a school book
(Chorus)
