I can't understand it, baby
Now it's could've been, should've been
You had it all and you didn't know
Now I'm on my way, see you later babe, later babe
Could've been you laying next to me
Should've been you with me every night
Now I've gotta let you go, let you go
But instead you had to play
Forever and ever and ever
I know you think I'm crazy
But you had me baby, all along
Let the past be the past, it's all in you, babe
Could've been you laying next to me
You played the game and now you've lost
But instead you had to play, now I'm on my way
Could've been you feeling everything
But instead you had to play
Could've been you feeling everything
(Heart and soul)
Should've been you laying by my side
Baby, let me explain
I promise I won't do it again yeah, yeah
You had it all and you didn't know
I was temporarily insane
Should've been you feeling everything
Now love has got you on your knees
And it's time to pay the cost
You should've kept me when you had me then
Didn't know what was going on in my mind
You had it all and you didn't know
You didn't know your ass was colorblind
(Why'd you have to play?)
You must be out your mind
Now I'm on my way, see you later babe, later babe
(Should've been you)
I was so blind, true love I could find lady
But I still love you
But I still feel you
Turned away when I let you in
One more chance is all I ask, girl let's put the past
When you had good love all the time
Should've been you with me every night
For you to walk away from me
I know you think I'm crazy
Now you're thinkin' 'bout what could of been, should of been
Could've been you
You couldn't see forest for the trees
Now you're feeling like I did you wrong
Now I've gotta let you go, let you go
Now I've gotta let you go, let you go
You thought the grass was greener on the other side
Forever and ever and ever
Could've been you laying next to me
Should've been you laying by my side
Should've been you laying by my side
See you later babe, later babe
I tried and I cried
Should've been you with me every night
You had it all and you didn't know
(Broke me down, broke me down)
Can you please let me back in darlin'
