If He Walked Into My Life
Where is that boy with the bugle?
My little love was always my big romance
Where's that boy with the bugle?
And why did I ever buy him those damn long pants?
Did he need a stronger hand?
Did he need a lighter touch?
Was I soft or was I tough?
Did I give enough, did I give too much?
At the moment when he needed me
Did I ever turn away?
Would I be there when he called
If he walked into my life today?
Were his days a little dull?
Were his nights a little wild?
Did I overstate my plan?
Did I stress the man and forget the child?
And there must have been a million things
That my heart forgot to say
Would I think of one or two
If he walked into my life today?
Should I blame the times I pampered him
Or blame the times I bossed him?
What a shame
I never really found the boy before I lost him
Were the years a little fast?
Was his world a little free?
Was there too much of a crowd?
All too lush and loud and not enough for me
Though I'll ask myself my whole life long
What went wrong along the way
Would I make the same mistakes if he walked into my life today?
If that boy with the bugle, if he walked into my life today
Where is that girl with the promise?
The girl who tried to show me what love could be
Where is that girl with the promise?
And why do I feel the someone to blame is me?
Did she need a stronger hand?
Did she need a lighter touch?
Was I soft or was I tough?
Did I give enough, did I give too much?
At the moment that she needed me
Did I ever turn away?
Would I be there when she called
If she walked into my life today?
Did she mind the lonely nights?
Did she count the empty days?
Was I silent, was I cold?
Was I quick to scold? Was I slow to praise?
And there must have been a million things
That my heart forgot to say
Would I think of one or two
If she walked into my life today?
Should I blame the times I pampered her
Or blame the times I bossed her?
What a shame
I never really found the girl before I lost her
Were the years a little fast?
Was her world a little free?
Was there too much of a crowd?
All too lush and loud and not enough for me
Though I'll ask myself my whole life long
What went wrong along the way
Would I make the same mistakes if she walked into my life today?
If that girl with the promise, if she walked into my life today
My little love was always my big romance
Where's that boy with the bugle?
And why did I ever buy him those damn long pants?
Did he need a stronger hand?
Did he need a lighter touch?
Was I soft or was I tough?
Did I give enough, did I give too much?
