 (pulloff  string)  4x
 It's so hard  not to blame  you it's hard  not to put  all the blame  on you
 'Cause you knew from the start there was one little part you would not
 let through
I'm  sure  there were even
 Moments when you thought
 
 You might someday finish what you'd begun
 but that could've been anyone
 Could've been anyone  2x
 
 I lost my place in the sun well, never mind
 It could've been anyone.
 So we all  make mistakes  it just figures  you'd make  me the biggest  one
 I was saving it up now it's spent and I don't know what I spent it on
Now  I find  if you
 Try hard enough
 
 You can wear it down 'til it's just about gone
 'Til you could've been anyone
 Could've been anyone  2x
 
 I lost my place in the sun well, never mind
 It could've been anyone
Your pattern  is different  from what  it implies
 The words  may be true  but I  realize
It isn't  description  so much  as disguise
 2x
Don't worry,  you can
 Learn to live without
 
 You've got a lifetime of that to draw upon and anyway
Mm-mm
 It could've been anyone
 You lost your place in  the sun
 lost your place in the sun
 Oh, you lost your place in  the sun
Well, never  mind
  Never mind
 It could've been anyone
 Lost your place in the sun
  Never mind 4x
 You lost your place in the sun
 (I think that's enough now)
