Emeli Sande - One of These Things First Lyrics



Emeli Sande - One of These Things First Lyrics
Official




I could have been a sailor, could have been a cook
A real live lover, could have been a book
I could have been a signpost, I could have been a clock
As simple as a kettle, steady as a rock
I could be
Here and now
I would be, I should be
But how?
I could have been

One of these things first
One of these things first

I could have been your pillar, could have been your door
I could have stayed beside you, could have stayed for more
Could have been your statue, I could have been your friend
A whole long lifetime could have been the end
I could've been yours so true
I would be, I should be through and through, yeah, yeah
I could have been

One of these things first
One of these things first
One of these things first
One of these things first
One of these things first
One of these things first
One of these things first
One of these things first
