Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I might've done a lot of things
Been smiled upon by kings and queens
Had you been around
Perhaps had you been by my side
My dreams might not have been denied
Had you been around

[Chorus]
I've wasted many years, tasted many tears
And I want to know
Lost on my own
Before I knew of you

[Verse 2]
I might have heard the sigh
Of someone passing by
Had you been around
And though it seems absurd
I really never heard
A sound

[Chorus]
Until the day you came my way
With pleasures I never found
It all might've have been
Had you been around
Until the day you came my way
With pleasures I never found
It all might've have been
Had you been around
