Lyrics The Statler Brothers

The Statler Brothers

Who Am I to Say

I wish I had a dollar

For every time I was unkind

I wish I'd had an answer

For all the questions on her mind

I wish I'd had the time for all the times

She needed me

I wish I'd realized

But I was much too blind to see

All she wanted was to love me

But all I did was to turn away

If I'd known how much she needed me

She might be here today

And if I'd been more open

And understood her ways

She might be in my arms tonight

But who am I to say

If I'd only been more loving

When she needed a best friend

If I'd only patched the pieces that she needed me to mend

If I'd seen her troubled heart and figured out just what to do

She might be laying here tonight and

Saying I love you

All she wanted was to love me

But all I did was turn away

If I'd known how much she needed me

She might be here today

And if I'd only been more open

And understood her ways

She might be in my arms tonight

But who am I to say

She should be in my arms tonight

But who am I to say
