See
Niggas think this love stuff is easy
Heh, it's not the caseFallin' 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 arms1 - 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 awayNever 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 todayRepeat 1In the morning, you know I coulda came back
Just before work and fooled around in the sackIn the afternoon, it woulda been so cool
Surprise you with ice, and set a date for next juneIn the evening, shoulda loved you right
And let my niggas know I'm stayin' home tonightI coulda, I woulda, I shoulda but now you're gone
But now you're goneRepeat 1Coulda, woulda
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I love you babyCan I sing to ya baby?
Can I sing to ya?Can I sing to ya baby?
Can I sing to ya?Repeat 1
