i shoulda listened
Tonight, I'm as lonely as it gets Wish I could say I've no regrets But I didn't realize back then Just exactly what I had Now I do and it's so sad Ooh, I miss you bad I shoulda listened To the beating of my heart When I held you close To the words I said when I said "I'll never let you go" I shoulda listened To the voice inside my head That said, "It's love" Now all I hear Is the sound of falling tears I shoulda listened My mind, doesn't hesitate to say "Oh, you fool, you let her slip away" But I just don't want to hear the truth So I try to cover my ears But I'm coming in louder and clear Wish I had when you were here I shoulda listened To the beating of my heart When I held you close To the words I said when I said "I'll never let you go" I shoulda listened To the voice inside my head That said, "It's love" Now all I hear Is the sound of falling tears I shoulda listened Oh, I shoulda listened To the voice inside my head That said, "It's love" Now all I hear Is the sound of falling tears I shoulda listened Yes, all I hear Is the sound of falling tears I shoulda listened I shoulda listened (I shoulda listened) I shoulda listened
