Coulda Woulda Shoulda

Coulda Woulda Shoulda - Montell Jordan/Case

See

Niggas think this love stuff is easy

Heh it's not the case

Fallin' in love is so easy

But stayin' that way is so hard

All she wanted was security

A man with a job and a car baby

You'd think I oughtta be happy

On a hill with a view of the stars

But as soon as I had to go out of town for a week

I went to the next woman's arms

If I coulda seen it inside her

Woulda seen her broken heart

I woulda held on tighter

Then we wouldn't be falling apart

I shoulda said I love her

A thousand times a day

Coulda woulda shoulda

My whole damn life away

Never had a good reason

For treating my lady that way

She cussed me out and left me standing there

And went to her girlfriend's to stay baby

Now I spend all my lonely nights

Mentally tryin' to explain

Why she told me she never wanted to see me again

A year ago today

If I coulda seen it inside her

Woulda seen her broken heart

I woulda held on tighter

Then we wouldn't be falling apart

I shoulda said I love her

A thousand times a day

Then I wouldn't be sittin' here

Coulda woulda shoulda

My whole damn life away

In the morning you know I coulda came back

Just before work and fooled around in the sack

In the afternoon it woulda been so cool

Surprise you with ice and set a date for next june

In the evening shoulda loved you right

And let my niggas know I'm stayin' home tonight

I coulda I woulda I shoulda but now you're gone

But now you're gone

If I coulda seen it inside her

Woulda seen her broken heart

I woulda held on tighter

Then we wouldn't be falling apart

I shoulda said I love her

A thousand times a day

Then I wouldn't be sittin' here

Coulda woulda shoulda

My whole damn life away

Coulda woulda

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I love you baby

Can I sing to ya baby

Can I sing to ya

Can I sing to ya baby

Can I sing to ya

If I coulda seen it inside her

Woulda seen her broken heart

I woulda held on tighter

Then we wouldn't be falling apart

I shoulda said I love her

A thousand times a day

Then I wouldn't be sittin' here

Coulda woulda shoulda

My whole damn life away
