[Intro]
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
1 - 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
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
Repeat 1
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
Repeat 1
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?
Repeat 1
