I was so excited when you asked if I could go But mom said I'd have to ask my daddy I met him at the front door so afraid that he'd say no But he smiled and said, "Let mama get you ready." In your cotton shirt and faded jeans, you came for me And the gingham dress was all I had to wear With a dollar in your pocket and a borrowed car You picked a yellow daisy for my hair That's the way it could have been Oh, that's the way it should have been If I had met you way back then That's the way it would have been I put away my gingham for a pretty dress of white And you wore a suit instead of faded jeans Our wedding day was perfect and we loved away the night Life for us was filled with lots of dreams We bought a house upon a hill outside of town And two young people finally settled in And you just won't believe the little children running 'round And they pick yellow daisies now and then And that's the way it could have been Oh, that's the way it should have been If I had met you way back then That's the way it would have been That's the way it could have been
