《That’s the Way It Could Have Been》歌词

[00:00:01] That's the Way It Could Have Been - Dolly Parton

[00:00:13] I was so excited when you asked if I could go

[00:00:18] But mom said I'd have to ask my daddy

[00:00:25] I met him at the front door so afraid that he'd say no

[00:00:31] But he smiled and said "Let mama get you ready"

[00:00:38] In your cotton shirt and faded jeans you came for me

[00:00:44] And the gingham dress was all I had to wear

[00:00:50] With a dollar in your pocket and a borrowed car

[00:00:56] You picked a yellow daisy for my hair

[00:01:01] That's the way it could have been

[00:01:07] Oh that's the way it should have been

[00:01:13] If I had met you way back then

[00:01:20] That's the way it would have been

[00:01:28] I put away my gingham for a pretty dress of white

[00:01:33] And you wore a suit instead of faded jeans

[00:01:40] Our wedding day was perfect and we loved away the night

[00:01:47] Life for us was filled with lots of dreams

[00:01:53] We bought a house upon a hill outside of town

[00:01:59] And two young people finally settled in

[00:02:05] And you just won't believe the little children running 'round

[00:02:12] And they pick yellow daisies now and then

[00:02:16] And that's the way it could have been

[00:02:22] Oh that's the way it should have been

[00:02:28] If I had met you way back then

[00:02:35] That's the way it would have been

[00:02:41] That's the way it could have been
