Coulda Been You Lyrics


Could've been you laying next to me
Could've been you feeling everything
You had it all and you didn't know
Now I've gotta let you go, let you go
Should've been you laying by my side
Should've been you with me every night
But instead you had to play
Now I'm on my way, see you later babe, later babe
I can't understand it, baby
You must be out your mind
For you to walk away from me
When you had good love all the time
You played the game and now you've lost
And it's time to pay the cost
Turned away when I let you in
Now you're thinkin' 'bout what could of been, should of been
Could've been you laying next to me
Could've been you feeling everything

You had it all and you didn't know
Now I've gotta let you go, let you go
Should've been you laying by my side
Should've been you with me every night
But instead you had to play
Now I'm on my way, see you later babe, later babe
You thought the grass was greener on the other side
You didn't know your ass was colorblind
Now you're feeling like I did you wrong
But you had me baby, all along
You couldn't see forest for the trees
Now love has got you on your knees
You should've kept me when you had me then
Now it's could've been, should've been
Could've been you laying next to me
Should've been you feeling everything
You had it all and you didn't know
Now I've gotta let you go, let you go
Should've been you laying by my side
Should've been you with me every night
But instead you had to play, now I'm on my way
See you later babe, later babe
Baby, let me explain
I was temporarily insane
Didn't know what was going on in my mind
I was so blind, true love I could find lady
Can you please let me back in darlin'
I promise I won't do it again yeah, yeah
One more chance is all I ask, girl let's put the past
Let the past be the past, it's all in you, babe
I tried and I cried
Could've been you
I know you think I'm crazy
But I still love you
(Heart and soul)
Forever and ever and ever
(Should've been you)
I know you think I'm crazy
But I still feel you
(Why'd you have to play?)
Forever and ever and ever
(Broke me down, broke me down)
Could've been you laying next to me
Could've been you feeling everything
You had it all and you didn't know
Now I've gotta let you go, let you go

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Angie Stone (born Angela Laverne Brown in January 30, 1961, in Columbia, South Carolina) is a Grammy Award-nominated American R&B, hip-hop, and neo-soul singer and actress. Stone's music possesses a clear old school soul music influence, and her singing vocals recall those of Aretha Franklin.


In the early 1980s, Stone (as 'Angie B'), was a member of The Sequence, the first major female hip-hop group. They had a hit in 1980 with "Funk You Up". She then worked with Mantronix, before teaming up and performing vocals and saxophone for Lenny Kravitz.


Angie Stone emerged during the 1990's as part of hip-hop/R&B trio Vertical Hold which released the popular single "Seems You're Much Too Busy" as well as two albums: A Matter of Time (June 1993) and Head First (1995).

In 1996, she teamed up with Gerry DeVeaux (Lenny Kravitz's cousin from The Bahamas) and together with Charlie Mole they formed Devox. One album received a Japanese-only release including Stone-penned or co-written material.

Angie Stone shared song-writing credits on D'Angelo's first two studio album's (1995 - Brown Sugar and 2000 - Voodoo) as well as providing backing vocals on tour with him.

She released her first solo album, Black Diamond, released on 28 September 1999 via Arista Records. She has since also released, via Clive Davis' J Records, Mahogany Soul on October 16, 2001 and Stone Love on July 6, 2004.

Much of Angie Stone's solo material has a significant hip-hop influence and features notable samples. For example, her first solo single, 1999's "No More Rain (In This Cloud)" samples Gladys Knight & The Pips' 1972 "Neither One Of Us (Want To Be The First To Say Goodbye)", and 2002 "Wish I Didn't Miss You" samples The O'Jays' 1972 "Back Stabbers".

Angie Stone sings the theme song for the UPN sitcom Girlfriends.
She has two children, a daughter and a son. The son is the child of neo-soul singer D'Angelo, whom she dated during the 1990's.
