I was so excited when you asked if I could go

But mom said I'd have to ask my daddy

I met him at the front door so afraid that he'd say no

But he smiled and said Let mama get you ready

In your cotton shirt and faded jeans you came for me

And the gingham dress was all I had to wear

With a dollar in your pocket and a borrowed car

You picked a yellow daisy for my hair

That's the way it could have been

Oh that's the way it should have been

If I had met you way back then

That's the way it would have been

I put away my gingham for a pretty dress of white

And you wore a suit instead of faded jeans

Our wedding day was perfect and we loved away the night

Life for us was filled with lots of dreams

We bought a house upon a hill outside of town

And two young people finally settled in

And you just won't believe the little children running 'round

And they pick yellow daisies now and then

And that's the way it could have been

Oh that's the way it should have been

If I had met you way back then

That's the way it would have been

That's the way it could have been
