I Could Have Done This Years Ago
I never used to take the easy way out
I used to run my head through the wall
I always found myself be out and about
I was never afraid to take a fall
Now I have played it safe for so many years
I thought I was cool and had no more fears
I have been hiding too much too long
But I am back now with this song
I could have done this years ago
I could have done this years ago
I should have done this years ago
I could have done this years ago
So many people are doing their best
How can I watch them pass me by
I have the feeling that I am failing my test
All those lost years are making me cry
Life has been treating me well
I am safe and secure
I simply forgot that I am more
I have been hiding and I have gone wrong
Now I'm finally back where I belong
I could have done this years ago
I could have done this years ago
I should have done this years ago
I could have done this years ago
I haven't told you yet of what I have done
The way I've been keeping myself down
I wanted to escape the challenge of life
By hiding away what I have found
Now I am setting me free to be all that I am
There is nothing else you must understand
I cannot hide it the call is too strong
It's calling for me and I'm coming along
I could have done this years ago
I could have done this years ago
I should have done this years ago
I could have done this years ago
