From the recording Didn't I
Lyrics
Did the best I could under the circumstances
Didn’t I Didn’t I
I always put one foot forward in a straight line
Didn’t I Didn’t I
CH
I used my head
While my heart was slowly breaking
When it saw me take the well worn road
I used my mind
While my soul was wondering what I could be
You weren’t in the plan
I had to let you go
Why didn’t I or couldn’t I
Make a few exceptions
Or take a leap of faith
Why couldn’t I
Why didn’t I
CH
BR
If I’d listened to you a little more
Let go of the wheel before
You walked away
I followed the rules
Took no chances
Didn’t I
Why didn’t I
CH
I used my head
While my heart was slowly breaking
When it saw me take the well worn road
I used my mind
While my soul was wondering what the hell
Am I doing here
I made it clear
Didn’t I
Didn’t I
Didn’t I
Didn’t I
