He sends her roses and lines he composes
|
things a lady loves.
|
Well he's there to hold her
|
when she needs a shoulder
|
if life gets too rough
|
Oh now that she's left
|
I keep kicking myself whenever
|
I start thinking back
|
He says he needs her,
|
tells her he loves her,
|
why didn't i think of that?
|
|
When she gets down
|
Well he's always around her,
|
he makes her smile again.
|
He mends her heartaches,
|
remembers her birthday,
|
and tries to be a friend.
|
Now that she's gone
|
I know what I did wrong,
|
it's all so simple in fact.
|
Well he says he wants her,
|
can't live without her,
|
why didn't I think of that?
|
|
(Chorus)
|
Ooh I've been watching
|
every move that he makes
|
ooh I've been thinking,
|
it could have been different somehow
|
If I'd KNOWN what I know now.
|
|
He sings her love songs
|
and tells her his love's strong
|
THINGS she needs to know
|
He tries to please her,
|
he calls for no reason,
|
just to say hello
|
He says he loves her
|
and he'll never leave her
|
and I never will get her back
|
I did my best,
|
thought of everything ELSE,
|
why didn't I think of that?
|
|
(chorus)
|
ooh I've been watching
|
every move that he makes
|
ooh I've been thinking,
|
it could have been different somehow
|
If I'd known what I know now.
|
|
He sends her roses
|
and lines he composes
|
things a lady loves.
|
Well he's there to hold her
|
when she needs a shoulder
|
if life gets too rough
|
Oh now that she's left
|
I keep kicking myself whenever
|
I start thinking back
|
He says he needs her,
|
tells her he loves her,
|
why didn't I think of that?
|
|
He says he loves her
|
and he'll never leave her,
|
why didn't I think of that?
