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 bluebells, that was me
The same me that stands here now
When I think that all this stuff
Can make a life, it s pretty hard to take it in
That was me
Well, that was me, Royal Irish, on the river, Mersey beatin
With the band, that was me
Yeah that was me, sweatin cobwebs, under contract, in the cellar
On TV, that was me
The same me that stands here now
If fate decreed that all of this
Would make a lifetime, who am I to disagree?
That was me
Yeah, that was me
That was me, a capella, at the altar, in the middle
Of the picture, that was me
That was me, at the party, sweatin cobwebs, in the cellar
On TV, yeah that was me
The same me that stands here now
When I think that all this stuff
Can make a life, it s pretty hard to take it in
That was me, that was me, yeah
