(Shoulda been)
And baby I'm so sorry for the things I put you through
With tears fallin' from my eyes
(Shoulda been)
I know it's true
(Shoulda been)
Now I'm starring in the mirror at a fool
I would've have done, I would've have said anything to make you stay
Baby I'm so sorry for the things I put you through
Instead of runnin' around I should've been lovin' you
(Shoulda been)
(Shoulda been, shoulda been lovin' you)
I try to reach you but you won't answer my call
Heaven knows how hard I prayed that Jesus could find a way
(Shoulda been, shoulda been lovin' you)
That what I get, that's what I deserve for being out there cheating
(Shoulda been lovin' you)
Instead of breaking your heart
Who shoulda been lovin' you, ooh
You'd want nothing to do with me
Shouldn't have to tell a grown man what to do
Instead of breaking your heart
Instead of runnin' around I should've been lovin' you
And I don't blame ya
(Shoulda been)
Baby I'm so sorry for the things I put you through
Who should been lovin' you
I could have never surmised that I'd be standing all alone
(Shoulda been)
And I can't stop you
(Shoulda been)
There's what you want, you walk away from me
Instead of runnin' around I should've been lovin' you
Instead of runnin' around I should've been lovin' you
This is not, this is not the way it was supposed to be
Instead of breaking your heart
I'm thinkin' 'bout every time I lied unto your face
(Shoulda been, shoulda been lovin' you)
(Shoulda been lovin' you)
Baby I'm so sorry for the things I put you through
(Shoulda been lovin' you)
I see you hooked up with somebody else
Hurting you was never in my plan
(Shoulda been, shoulda been lovin' you)
Now I'm starring in the mirror at a fool
I was trying to be the man
(Shoulda been)
(Shoulda been)
Who should been lovin' you
Instead of breaking your heart
(Shoulda been)
Now I'm starring in the mirror at a fool
I know it's true
You saw right through me but still you gave me my space
This is not like anything in my life that I've ever felt
I never dreamed that you
(Shoulda been lovin' you)
Who should been lovin' you
Now I'm starring in the mirror at a fool
What am I gonna do the first time
It's true
(Shoulda been)
(Shoulda been, shoulda been lovin' you)
(Shoulda been)
I think I might lose my mind, inside my heart will be bleeding
(Shoulda been)
Baby, I miss you but you're moving on with your life
I thought I was so damn cool
