shoulda been lovin' you
Umm  Thinking 'bout all the times I let you down. Now both my feet are firmly planted on the ground.  Hurting you was never in my plan, I was trying to be the man.  I try to reach you But you won't answer my call And I don't blame ya.  I never dreamed that you You'd want nothing to do with me.  [Chorus] I know it's true (shoulda been) Instead of runnin' around, I should've been lovin' you. (Shoulda been) Instead of breaking your heart (Shoulda been lovin' you) And baby I'm so sorry for the things I put you through (Shoulda been lovin you) Now I'm starring in the mirror at a fool Who should been lovin' you! (Shoulda been) Who Shoulda been lovin' you (Shoulda been) Oh (Shoulda been lovin' you)  I'm thinking 'bout every time I lied unto your face You saw right through me but still you gave me my space. Shouldn't have to tell a grown man what to do I thought I was so damn cool.  Baby I miss you but you're moving on with your life, And I can't stop you.  I could have never surmised that I'd be standing all alone  With tears fallin' from my eyes.  [Chorus]  Ah, ah, ah, ah. Ah, ah, ah, ah.  There's what you want. You walk away from me.  This is not, this is not the way it was supposed to be Heaven knows how hard I prayed that Jesus could find a way I would've have done, I would've have said anything to make you stay.  This is not like anything in my life that I've ever felt What am I gonna do the first time I see you hooked up with somebody else.  I think I might lose my mind. Inside my heart will be bleeding.  That what I get That's what I deserve For being out there cheating.  [Chorus: x2]  Ah, ah, ah, ah. Ah, ah, ah, ah. Ah, ah, ah, ah. Ah, ah, ah, ah.
