I coulda been a ninja. I could have been a clown.
Coulda been a lot of things, looking back from now.
I could have been a singer, maybe a Navy Seal.
Better husband, son, or nephew. But, I’ve never served a better meal.
I coulda been an astronaut or an architect… But looking back, I can’t regret.
I’d never made a better bet.
I coulda been a Jay. Or I might have been a Matt. But both together struck a chord and now I wear the hat.
I coulda been a lot of things that sometimes make me sad.
But all the things I have yet become will make a better Dad.
