Shoulda Woulda Coulda - Lyrics by Beverley Knight


Lyrics
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)]
