(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...
