Shoulda Woulda Coulda Lyrics - Beverly Knight

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 that 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. 

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, 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 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.. 

Chorus (x2)
