Hammitt, Matt - Could've Been Lyrics






Walking the line between faith and doubt
Caught in the middle, I could not step out
Don't know what I waited for
I was so insecure
My feet were stuck and they would not move
Knew what they wanted but they could not do
I heard a voice in the waves
Daring me to be brave

Oh, I was waiting on a spiritual wind
Waiting for someone to say when
Almost wasted my whole life
For what could've been, should've been, would've been
I knew I was made for more
To live every day like a new beginning
And I thank God now, that dead end is what could have been
You saved me from what could've been

I had my eye out on everyone else
I'd say someday I'll be there as well
I'll join the movers and shakers
Once I get a few things straight
Oh, it's crazy how the time flies, I just watched it go by
Grass was growing greener, but I was on the wrong side
Losing my way
Wishing that the world would change

Oh, I was waiting on a spiritual wind
Waiting for someone to say when
Almost wasted my whole life
For what could've been, should've been, would've been
I knew I was made for more
To live every day like a new beginning
And I thank God now, that dead end is what could have been
You saved me from what could've been

Oh, I don't wanna give up
I dont wanna give in
The life that you gave me
To say that I lived it
I don't wanna give up
I don't wanna give in
The life that you gave me
I say that I lived it

Oh, I was waiting on a spiritual wind
Waiting for someone to say when
Almost wasted my whole life
For what could've been, should've been, would've been
I knew I was made for more
To live every day like a new beginning
And I thank God now, that dead end is what could have been
You saved me from what could've been
You saved me from what could've been
You saved me from what could've been
You saved me from what could've been
You saved me from what could've been

    Matt , i met you at uprise a couple years ago at a meet and greet that I got in with a friend of mine. And all I could say was hi and thank you and I got so nervous and emotional because your lyrics literally saved my life. Gods used you in that way and I’m glad you didn’t stop making music bc it continues to have meaning to my life so thank you.

  5. t.... 1....

    I love Matt’s voice!!

    Good song!!!!!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍😉

  8. k.... ....

    What an amazing song. Will you come to Winter Jam, please?! You'd love it!!

  9. T.... D....

    I’m curious. I know you’re not in a band anymore, but I was wondering if you’re ever gonna go back to your rock roots or stick more to pop? I really loved Fight the Tide and The Face of Love which had more of a rock sound. You do great music regardless, but just wondering.

  10. T.... D....

    Super cool. Great song.

  11. y.... l....

    Dios le bendiga hermano matt . Dios use su voz para la predicación de la biblia. Amén

  12. A.... ....

    I miss his voice so bad!!! Back to Sanctus Real pleeeeeease!!! hehehe!!

    A.... ....

    Ardisha Well now there’s more music to listen to! Nothing wrong with that!

    A.... ....

    Talon Diwisch Not against that fact, and there’s nothing wrong with missing the old Sanctus Real either (:

    A.... ....

    I think the new guy’s great. Better to replace the singer I think, then to quit the band altogether.

    A.... ....

    I hated the news at first. Actually for quite a while. But life goes on, and I think it was a good decision for him to be with his family more.

    A.... ....

    For sure, I still listen to some of their new songs but I prefer the old songs. Anyways! As long as Matt continues making music, I’m more than satisfied! lol

  13. P.... ....

    Thank you for this song. It is so me NOW!

  14. D.... C....

    Thk u matt hammit came to indonesia

  18. R.... J....

    Are u related to Nathalie hammitt of Santa Maria. I'm working with her and need some air support.

  19. H.... F....

    I came across him and his old band back in Jan/Feb ish and heard the song "Lead me." I thought that song was going to be the start of my family being restored. I listened to it and cried a many nights. She ended up filing for divorce and there has been a good chance that another man was part of it. The whole "We're Just Friends" was said quite a bit. Mind you she brought my children around him and has been to a wedding w/this man while still married. She turned out not to be the woman I saw come down the aisle. There's a long story but my faith in God has been challenged. I was never the biggest religious person but I feel my next chapter will be written w/a better ending. 16 years/8 married/3 children is hard for me to lose but I feel I'm better off w/out her. I like this guy and will be listening some more to help restore some faith. She walked away and now I have to "LET HER GO!" I don't think I could ever take her back, not w/what I know now.

    H.... F....

    Hope you find the woman God wants you to be with. Anyways Sanctus Real is still a band and their new lead singer's name is Dustin Lolli he's pretty good but I personally prefer Matt Hammitt over him. I'm trying to convince Matt to invite Dustin to do guest vocals on one of his upcoming solo albums because both of their music styles are uniquely different but awesome at the same time. Dustin turned Sanctus Real from a Christian Rock Band into a Worship Band.

    H.... F....

    Michael Pritchett  I appreciate it. It's been thrown in my face on Face Book now with all the concerts they've been to and now he says "His girlfriend knows everything, I don't need Google." Hit the gym this morning and feel good. When I hit the gym it seems to help. I need to free myself of her. It's been really hard for me because I still think of her and know it's over. I hope reality hits her in the face in the next couple years.

    H.... F....

    God bless you brother I feel for you

    H.... F....

    Hanson Fam yeah, I’m sorry I’ve been through some tough things already and God has brought me through! Having faith is hard! I lost my job just because my emotions got in the way! But God has a plan for everything! No matter what you’re going through God is always with you!

  20. R.... S....

    Matt, Wow man what a great song!

  21. S.... ....

    I love this song! So much meaning to it. I can so relate to the lyrics too. He saved me from what could have been!

  22. y.... j....

    What happened with Sactus Real?

    y.... j....

    They broke up in 2016 I believe. So sad :(

    y.... j....

    They still exist actually. Just with a different lead singer. Matt stepped away so he could be there for his family more.

    y.... j....

    Yeah Sanctus Real is still around and their new singer’s name is Dustin Lolli and his vocal style’s so different from Matt Hammitt’s. I’m trying to get them together so that he can do guest vocals on one of his upcoming albums.

  23. r.... ....

    Love it.

  24. S.... W....

    Awesome track Matt!

  25. B.... H....

    I love this song, the lyrics, and sound are just incredible where can I buy this CD I love it, thanks Matt for sharing

  26. M.... N....

    Love this song! So beautiful

  27. K.... B....

    Love it--good message Matt.

  28. m.... ....

    I love this song, Matt! And I love that, like the Bible, it’s layered. I get 2 different meanings from it, personally—I can relate in 2 ways. It’s just so good. Thank you.

  29. A.... A....

    "Do You See A Man Who Does Good Work, He Will Serve Kings, He Won't Serve Ordinary Men" Good Work Matt. God Bless! :) Check Me Out Too At Youtube.com/armelion1music :)

  30. L.... L....

    Matt Hammitt Linda Canção.

  31. M.... P....

    I still think Dustin Lolli should do guest vocals on one of Matt Hammitt’s upcoming albums if he asked him to.

  32. v.... A....

    Send a hug to Brazil.

  33. v.... A....

    GOD bless
