VERSE 1:
that was me
at the scout camp
in the school play
spade and bucket
by the sea
that was me
that was me
playing conkers
at the bus stop
on a blanket
in the blue bells
that was me
REFRAIN:
the same me that stands here now
when i think that all this stuff
can make a life that’s pretty hard to take it in
that was me
VERSE 2:
well that was me
royal iris
on the river
mersey beat n’
with the band
that was me
yeah that was me
sweating cobwebs
under contract
in the cellar
on TV
that was me
REFRAIN:
the same me that stands here now
if fate agreed that all of this
to make a lifetime
who am i to disagree?
that was me
VERSE 3:
that was me
acapella
at the altar
in the middle
of the picture
that was me
that was me
at the party
sweatin’ cobwebs
in a cellar
on TV
ya that was me
REFRAIN:
the same me that stands here now
when i think that all this stuff
can make a life that’s pretty hard to take it in
that was me
that was me, ya, that was me!
