[Verse 1]
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 blue bells
That was me
[Chorus 1]
The same me that stands here now
When I think that all this stuff
Can make a life that's pretty hard to take it in
That was me
[Verse 2]
Well, that was me, royal iris , on the river
Merseybeatin' with the band
That was me
Yeah, that was me
Sweating cobwebs under contract
In the cellar, on TV
That was me
[Chorus 2]
The same me that stands here now
If fate agreed that all of this
Would make a lifetime
Who am I to disagree?
That was me
Yeah, that was me
[Verse 3]
That was me accapella at the altar
In the middle of the picture
That was me
That was me at the party sweating cobwebs
In a cellar on TV
Yeah, that was me
[Chorus 1]
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
[Outro]
That was me
That was me
