Texty: Beverley Knight. Shoulda Woulda Coulda.

People said that together we were both sides of the same coin
And we would shine like Venus in a clear night sky
We thought our love could overcome the circumstances
And my ambition wouldn't allow for compromise

I could see in the distance all the dreams that we didn't mean
And 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

And how I wish I (wish I)
Wish I'd done a little bit more
Now shoulda, woulda coulda means I'm outta time (I'm outta time)
Shoulda, woulda, coulda can't change your mind
And I wonder (wonder)
Whatta, what I'm gonna do
Shoulda, woulda, coulda are the last words of a fool

People ask what it feels like to live the kinda 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
'Cos I was busy loving something else
And so for every little thing that you hold onto
You gotta let something else go

How I wish I (wish I)
Wish I'd done a little bit more
Now shoulda, woulda coulda means I'm outta time (I'm outta time)
Shoulda, woulda, coulda can't change your mind
And I wonder (said I wonder)
Whatta, what I'm gonna do (and I wonder, wonder, wonder)
Shoulda, woulda, coulda are the last words of a fool
If I would not forsake
The opportunities of fate
I know I'm right where I belong
But sometimes when I'm not that strong...

I wish I (wish I)
Wish I'd done a little bit more (and I wanna, shoulda, woulda, shoulda, coulda)
Now shoulda, woulda coulda means I'm outta time (oh I'm outta time)
Shoulda, woulda, coulda can't change your mind
And I wonder (said I wonder) Whatta, what I'm gonna do (oh oh-oh-oh)
Shoulda, woulda, coulda are the last words of a fool

And how I wish I
Wish I'd done a little bit more
Now shoulda, woulda coulda means I'm outta time
Shoulda, woulda, coulda can't change your mind
And I wonder (Shoulda, woulda, coulda means I'm out of time)
Whatta, what I'm gonna do (Shoulda, woulda, coulda can't change your mind)
Shoulda, woulda, coulda means I'm out of time
Shoulda, woulda, coulda can't change your mind

Can't change your mind
