The Things I Might Have Been

Willie Hugh Nelson (pronounced /wɪli nɛlsən /; born April 30, 1933) is an American country music singer-songwriter, as well as an author, poet, actor, and activist. The critical success of the album Shotgun Willie (1973), combined with the critical and commercial success of Red Headed Stranger (1975) and Stardust (1978), made Nelson one of the most recognized artists in country music. He was one of the main figures of outlaw country, a subgenre of country music that developed at the end of the 1960s as a reaction to the conservative restrictions of the Nashville sound. Nelson has acted in over 30 films, co-authored several books, and has been involved in activism for the use of biofuels and the legalization of marijuana. more »

I might have been a helpless soul 
With nothing much in store
I might have been without a goal 
Just dreams and nothing more
I might have known my life alone 
But that's where you came in
Your loving arms have saved me from 
The things I might have been

I might have been the kind who roams 
A stranger everywhere
Just one of those poor stay-at-homes 
With no one's lips to share
But your sweet kiss has changed all this 
And made my life begin
So keep loving me don't let me be 
The things I might have been
The things I might have been
