Cyrus, Billy Ray - Could've Been Me Lyrics






I hear you just got married
Took a month long honeymoon
And you were all smiles at the wedding
You cried when you kissed the groom

I got no invitation
I guess the mailman didn't bring it to me
But I see the whole thing in slow motion
Every night as I try to sleep

My buddy John said you looked real pretty
And you acted like you were in love
He said the preacher asked for objections
And he thought about standing up

I told John he must've been crazy
Cause you were just about to say "I do"
He just gave me a wink and said all he could think
Was it could've been me with you

It could've been me, standing there with you
It could've been me, and my dreams coming true
But those dreams move on if you wait too long
It took me 'til now to see, it could've been me

I don't guess I ever told you
That I went out and bought you a ring
I even carried it around in my pocket
Waiting to say the right thing

I pulled it out the other day
But the diamond had lost its shine
Well I know how it feels cause my eyes grow dim
When I think you could have been mine

It could've been me, standing there with you
It could've been me, and my dreams coming true
But those dreams move on if you wait too long
It took me 'til now to see, it could've been me

I know I called just in time to be too late
You know dreams move on if you wait too long
It took me 'til now to see that

It could've been me, standing there with you
It could've been me, and my dreams coming true
But those dreams move on if you wait too long
It took me 'til now to see, it could've been me
It could've been me
It could've been me
It could've been me
It could've been me

Cyrus, Billy Ray Could've Been Me Comments
  1. D.... N....

    Who else loves getting tipsy, and think about growing a mullet back while listening to real country music 🙋🏻

  2. E.... D....

    ...but those dreams, move on, if you wait too long...
    I remember when I was younger, having this song on cassette tape.. That was  a long time ago..

  3. L.... S....

    Always will wonder

  4. N.... F....

    COULD'VE & SHOULD'VE BEEN ME.

  5. J.... M....

    I remember having this cassette an played it everyday , something about BRC songs that I relate to

  6. C.... ....

    Definitely not a one hit wonder. One of the greatest voices ever. And a very underrated country singer that doesn't get the recognition he deserves.

  7. C.... K....

    Song says it alllllllll........ The love will NEVER die. Best wishes..


    ..

  8. C.... J....

    My OCD made me down vote because it was on 999. Sorry. Still one of my favorite songs from the album..

  9. P.... R....

    Achy breaky is the most overrated country song i have ever heard this song, all gave some,she is not crying anymore,words by heart and the heart of a woman are all better then achy breaky

  10. S.... J....

    "I knooooow I called/ just in time/ to be too late......"
    Billy Ray wrote this song, like a lot of his songs, and it has so many good lines, so many observations....

  11. J.... ....

    Could’ve been Miley...standin next to Liam

  12. D.... C....

    Yes in January 2020!

  13. s.... b....

    One of my faves!

  14. P.... N....

    Alot of people need to think about this cause this song tells the truth I LOVE 80s and 90s country music

    P.... N....

    I have very fond memories of hearing this song as a little kid in the summer of 1992, in the back of my mom's old Subaru lol. God, it seemed like such a magical time. But nooooooo, I had to be in preschool.

  15. r.... v....

    Could Of Been

  16. N.... W....

    Something about hart brak and country music that go together

  17. J.... B....

    "You know I called just in time to be too late...."

  18. J.... ....

    Very underrated album.

  19. R.... A....

    He looks like Miley Cyrus

  20. D.... M....

    Fuckn classic 😞💪💯

  21. E.... L....

    She’s not crying anymore is my favorite.

  22. J.... H....

    That was uncalled for.

  23. D.... M....

    May the best looking virgin win

  24. S.... ....

    Yuck. Man raised a whore (Good Job Billy). He was part of the death of any real music being played to the masses. "Achy Breaky Heart".

  25. K.... K....

    The diamond LOST ITS SHINE

  26. G.... L....

    Yessss Billy Rae 💟

  27. C.... C....

    It could've been me
    It could've been me
    It could've been me
    It could've been me

  41. k.... ....

    Your a "BUZZ KILL" YouTube 🤔😇😁😏😎 yes I'm using Song titles in my rants 😆 look em up I challenge anyone to do it. Other titles or stated in previous comments. Just "WATCH ME"

  42. k.... ....

    Could of been me.
    Well now YouTube @ RANDOM is wanting to play "SHE'S NOT CRYING ANYMORE"
    I'm going like duh cuz she's moved on. I'm skipping all these recommended ones. Cuz seriously how did I end up here when I started out with DISNEY SONGS?_(anime like Inuyasha fan made videos to one's with just lyrics and oringal scenes from the a movie 🎥. I love all 🎶 types of music. "Music is magic". Music breathes life. It speaks to me. "It all depends on the mood I'm in" really. So I ask The 'YouTube Fates' Why did ya bring me here? I like the song really. Haven't wanted to hear it in so long. Still don't want to listen to this sadness. So I'm skipping over all Recommended videos for a while. "I'll be the last one Standing" when it comes to my musical time. See ya 👋

  43. k.... ....

    Feels like this song title could go right beside LITTLE TEXAS 's "WHAT MIGHT OF BEEN"
    Could of be just me thou 😏

  44. L.... B....

    Your the best, I don't know how many times I heard acky braky heart in one day...❤❤❤❤👍

  85. f.... k....

    country song is the best genre. Or bit of country pop. It is totally awesome.
    Before he had the horse in the back

  86. E.... P....

  90. R.... W....

    I remember being a kid hearing this on the radio thinking about my first crush lol damn that crush died hard.. love this song!

  91. D.... R....

    Could’ve been me💖👏

  92. H.... R....

    June 2019!!! Sad thats this new generation dont get to know this Billy Ray Cyrus

    H.... R....

    I'm only 30 and I know the goods from Billy Ray. My dad played it non stop. Lol. On the other hand my 4 kids know the new Billy. Lol.

    H.... R....

    He had two hits

    H.... R....

    met him on the achy break heart tour, might have a good voice, but lousy personality. can't treat your fans like shit or you won't have any fans... exactly what I told him

    H.... R....

    Pamela you are full of shit. Every show I have been to of his Cyrus treats his fans like close friends or family. If a fan is disrespectful to him however he still tries to be polite. So shut that bullshit up.

    H.... R....

    Valid point..He's still quite famous in his own right,but this day and age he is mostly known as "Mileys Dad"!!..

  93. c.... ....

    My dream moved on..I waited to long!!Oh well what can I do

    c.... ....

    carlagibson24 should have listened to billy ray lol

  94. K.... L....

    great songs he sang

  95. L.... H....

    love this song too

  96. Z.... P....

    He really doesn't have much of a voice. His singing is mostly gimmick grumbling.

  97. T.... M....

    Today's Country simply SUCKS ASS, when it comes to stuff like this. Billy Ray was BRILLIANT on his first few albums, he still is really...his producers captured his sound, emotion, vocals etc...percectly. Classic Brilliant stuff!!

  98. H.... ....

    No horses in the back?

  99. �.... �....

    Old Town Road? c:

  100. F.... H....

    After Old Town Road, I had to check this dude out.
