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
|
And every choice I had to make left you on your own
|
Somehow the road we started down had split us somewhere
|
Too late to realise 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 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 that 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
|
|
Chorus
|
|
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..
