Shoulda Woulda Coulda

People say that together

We were both sides of the same coin

That we would shine like Venus

In a clear night sky

We thought our love

Could overcome the circumstances

But my ambition

Wouldn't allow for compromise

I could see in the distance

All the dreams that were clear to me

Every choice that I had to make

Left you on your own

Somehow the road we started down

Had split asunder

Too late to realize

How far apart we'd grown

How I wish, I wish I'd done a little bit more

Now, shoulda, woulda, coulda, means I'm out of time

'Coz shoulda, woulda, coulda, can't change your mind

And I wonder, wonder, wonder what I'm gonna do

Shoulda, woulda, coulda are the last words of a fool

People ask how it feels

To live the kind of life others dream about

I tell them, everybody gotta face

Their highs and their lows

And in my life there's a love I put aside

'Cause I was busy loving something else

So for every little thing you hold on to

You've got to let something else go

How I wish, I wish I'd done a little bit more

Now, shoulda, woulda, coulda, means I'm out of time

'Coz shoulda, woulda, coulda, can't change your mind

And I wonder, wonder, wonder what I'm gonna do

Shoulda, woulda, coulda are the last words of a fool

Fool, if I would now forsake

The opportunities are fate

I know I'm right where I belong

But sometimes when I'm not so strong I

How I wish, I wish I'd done a little bit more

Now, shoulda, woulda, coulda, means I'm out of time

'Coz shoulda, woulda, coulda, can't change your mind

And I wonder, wonder, wonder what I'm gonna do

Shoulda, woulda, coulda are the last words of a fool

How I wish, I wish I'd done a little bit more

Now, shoulda, woulda, coulda, means I'm out of time

'Coz shoulda, woulda, coulda, can't change your mind

And I wonder, wonder, wonder what I'm gonna do

Shoulda, woulda, coulda are the last words of a fool
