Lyrics
WHERE WOULD I BE
David Walburn © 2007
VERSE A My life has been a series of consequences dealing with the fall out from good intentions
I could tell you stories but it?s so hard to mention the places I?ve been without her
VERSE B I was an artful display of total degradation
Caught in a world wind of social retardation
Were desire is the mother of all creation
Living a life without love
VERSE C But she came along and saved me from the wolf
I owe her my life a life that wouldn?t be no good
If it wasn?t for her I wouldn?t be here
CHORUS Where would I be without her - I?d be a loner
Where would I be without love - as good as goner
Sleeping under bridges eating beans and wieners
Doing my business and wiping with the scenery
That?s where I?d be without her, that?s where I?d be without love
A day late, a dollar short and over dressed for destiny
That?s where I?d be without her
A day late, a dollar short, and over dressed for destiny
That?s where I?d be without her
VERSE A I was taking my life with the whisky glass
Hiding from the pain in a field of grass
Two of everything spinning way too fast
In a world slowly fading gray
VERSE B You?ve seen them in the streets you?ve seen them in the bars
A lot of good folks that went gone too far
I was one of them until I caught a star
Falling from the sky one day
VERSE C (Repeat)
CHORUS Where would I be without her - I?d be a loner
Where would I be without love - a good as goner
Living under bridges drinking 20/20
Dancing with the wolf and running from reality
