A Lot Of Things Different
I'd spend a lot more time in the pouring rain
without an umbrella covering my head
and I'd stood up to that bully when he pushed
and called me names, but I was too afraid
and I'd a gone on and saw Elvis that night
he came to town, but mama said I couldn't
and I'd a went skinny dipping with Jenny Carson
that time she dared me to, but I didn't
Oh I, I'd done a lot of things different

I wished I'd a spent more time with my dad
when he was alive, now I don't have the chance
I wish I had told my brother how much I loved him
before he went off to war, but I just shook his hand
and I wish I had gone to church on Sunday morning
when my grandma begged me too, but I was afraid of God
and I wish I would've listened when they said Boy,
you're gonna wish you hadn't, but I wouldn't
Oh I, I'd done a lot of things different

People say they wouldn't change a thing,
even if they could, oh but I would
There was this red dress she wanted one time so bad
she could taste it, and I should've bought it, but I didn't
she wanted to paint our bedroom yellow and trim it
blues and greens, but I wouldn't let her, wouldn't a hurt nuthin
she loved to be held and kissed and touched,
but I didn't do it, not nearly enough
and if I'd a known that dance was going to be our last dance
I'd a asked that band to play on and on, on and on
Oh I, I'd done a lot of things different

People say they wouldn't change a thing,
even if they could, oh but I would
Oh whoa Oh I, I'd done a lot of things different
Oh I, I'd done a lot of things
I think we'd all do a lot of things different
There are so many things that happen in our
lives that we wish we could now change......
Is there something that you wish you would
have done, but didn't?
Is there a time when you now wish you had
told someone you loved them, but didn't?
Is there a time when you had a disagreement
with someone, and now wish you had
apologized,
but didn't?
Don't wait until it is too late
Put your trust in God,
In your family and friends,
and
in Yourself.....
Are there things that you wish you could now change?
Can you say.....
I'd done a lot of things different......
