If I Could Have My Way Lyrics

Jud Strunk

If I could have my way
I would wake up every morning
And find your pretty head
Restin’ on my arm
And I’d give you all the love
That I could ever give you
Hope to make you smile
If I could have my way

But that’s not how it goes
I’ve had my share of blows
I guess I’ll have to take this world in stride
And come tomorrow mornin’
I’ll remember yesterday
And how it might have been
If I could have my way

If I could have my way
I’d be goin’ where you’re goin’
Livin’ where you’re livin’
Doin’ what you do
Sharin’ all the good times
I could ever hope to handle
Tryin’ hard to please you
If I could have my way

But that’s not in the game
Our highway’s aren’t the same
Soon you’ll be on yours and I’ll take mine
Then I’ll look back and remember
The night we did our show
The day you took the time out
To simple say “hello
And come tomorrow mornin’
I’ll remember yesterday
And how it might have been
If I could have my way

And how it might have been
If I could have my way
