It Could’ve Been You Lyrics by Chris Jobe

2019

[Chorus]
It could've been you
It could've been me
It could've been us
Or your family
But instead it was him
Instead it was her
Doesn't matter where you stand
'Cause we all getting hurt
Doesn't matter where you're from
Doesn't matter who you are
Doesn't matter if you're close
Doesn't matter if you're far
'Cause we all want love
And we all got fear
And when you lose someone
We all shed the same tears (yeah)
[Verse]
But when I hear the gunshots, it's too late
Too late, ayy yeah
When I feel my heart stop, it's too late
Too laaaate
One minute, one minute
That's all it takes to take your breath away
To take your life away
To take your life away, away
I'll pray, I'll pray
Every single day
That this world will change
But I keep reading headlines running through my head like
[Chorus]
It could've been you
It could've been me
It could've been us
Or your family
But instead it was him
Instead it was her
Doesn't matter where you stand
'Cause we all getting hurt
Doesn't matter where you're from
Doesn't matter who you are
Doesn't matter if you're close
Doesn't matter if you're far
'Cause we all want love
And we all got fear
And when you lose someone
We all shed the same tears
[Bridge]
For my heart (my heart)
And my love (my love)
And my planet (my planet)
A new start (new start)
I'm just saying (just saying)
That we could change (that we could change)
From [?]
It's not too late
[Outro]
It could've been you
It could've been me
It could've been us
Or your family
But instead it was him
Instead it was her
Doesn't matter where you stand
'Cause we all getting hurt
It could've been you
