It could've been a different story
Trailing in a blaze of glory
Compromise my love for someone
Justify my art for no one

I could've scaled the peaks of showbiz
Could've owned a country house
Could've held the highest office
Claim what rightfully was mine

It could've been a different story
But I fell in with the wrong crowd
No one there to try and guide me
No one there to understand me

Once it seemed I had the power
What I touched turned into gold
I was young and so together
Never did what I was told

SOLO

It could've been a different story
Could've earnt my place in history
But the wrong time was the right time
In the wrong place, missed the deadline

But I know I've made mistakes
I want to rectify them all
I never did apply the brakes
And many times I hit the wall

It could've been a different story
Trailing in a blaze of glory
Compromised my love for someone
Justify my art for no one

SOLO
