From the recording I Chose You
Lyrics
You got your daddy's chin
And your mama's pretty eyes
Holding you thinking what was told to me
Where you make your bed you lie
I think I could have been real good and to this day I'd still believe
But you're all that matters now, I gotta keep that one a dream
Could have chose to go to college
Play baseball in the spring
I'm sure if I'd put my mind to it
Could have done most anything
I don't regret the choice I made, it was the right thing to do
I could have chosen anything
But I chose you
The weekend isn't what it used to be
Since I became a baseball dad
Even though I'm still young enough to play
I choose to watch instead
Sometimes my mind drifts off, I wonder if what I'm doing's right
Then the crowd cheers as you make the play and I'm laughing while I cry
Could have chose to go to college
And play baseball in the spring
I'm sure if I'd put my mind to it, I could have done most anything
I don't regret the choice I made, it was the right thing to do
I could have chosen anything
But I chose you
I've worked hard for what I've got
And it may not seem like much
All the sacrifices that I made just so one life could be touched
I never realized my dream but I've had time to think it through
I wouldn't change a single thing, I wouldn't trade a dream for you
I could have chose to go to college
And play baseball in the spring
I'm sure if I'd put my mind to it, I could have done most anything
I don't regret the choice I made, it was the right thing to do
I could have chosen anything
But I chose you
I chose you (oh)
But I chose you
