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 Every choice I had to make left you on your own Somehow the road we started down had split asunder Too late to realise how far apart we'd grown
Chorus:
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 fake I know I'm right where I belong But sometimes when I'm not that strong
