Sammi Smith Lyrics
"Things I Might Have Been"

(Robert B. Sherman - Richard M. Sherman)

I might have been a helpless soul
With nothing much in store
And I might have been without a gole
Just dreams and nothing more.

I might have known a life alone
But that's where you came in
And your lovin' arms have saved me
From the things I might have been.

I might have been the kind
Who roams a stranger everywhere
Just one of those who stay at homes
With no one's lips to share.

But your sweet kiss has changed all this
And made my life begin
So keep a lovin' me, don't let me be
The things I might have been.

The things I might have been...
