Should have been different but
It wasn´t different, was it
Same old story, dear john,
And so long
Should have fit like a glove
Should have fit like a ring
Like a diamond ring
A token of true love
Should have all worked out
But it didn´t
She should be here now
But she isn´t

[Chorus:]
There´s your trouble,
There´s your trouble
You keep seeing double
With the wrong one
You can´t see I love you,
You can´t see she doesn´t
But you just keep holding on
There´s your trouble

So now you´re thinking ´bout
All you´re missing how
Deep you´re sinking,
Round and round and dragging down
Why don´t you cash in your chips
Why don´t you call it a loss
Not such a big loss,
Chalk it up better luck
Could have been true love
But it wasn´t
It should all add up
But it doesn´t

[Repeat chorus]

Should have all worked out
But it didn´t
She should be here now
But she isn´t

[Repeat chorus]
