Looking back it's hard for me to see. Just how I could have been so blind. Like an actor on a movie screen. You played the part with every line. Well every story doesn't have a happy ending. Sometimes a flower doesn't grow. I hope you understand. The message that I'm sending. But boy I think you need to know. (coulda been the one). That I would give it all. To catch you when you fall boo. (shoulda been the one). Didn't know just what you had boy. Now it's just too bad boy. (after all is said and done). You're a cheater and a liar. Went to play with fire. Boy I hope that you enjoyed your fun. Cuz you coulda been the one. There's nothing left to say. Coulda been the one. Coulda been. Shoulda been. My momma didn't raise no fool. She said play with fire you get burned. You laughed at me I laugh at you. Now it seems the table's turned. I must admit I really thought you had potential. But I could not have been more wrong. I need somebody I can trust with his essentials. You had your chance but now I'm long gone. (coulda been the one). I would give it all. To catch you when you fall boo. (shoulda been the one). Didn't know just what you had boy. Now it's just too bad boy. (after all is said and done). You're a cheater and a liar. Went to play with fire. Boy I hope that you enjoyed your fun. Cuz you coulda been the one. You coulda been the one baby. (you coulda been the one). Oh yeah. You played yourself boy. And there is no denying it. It's just the way the story goes. You made your bed boy. Better go and lay in it. But know that you'll be laying there alone. You coulda been the one. (coulda been the one). I would give it all. To catch you when you fall boo. (shoulda been the one). Didn't know just what you had boy. Now it's just too bad boy. (after all is said and done). You're a cheater and a liar. Went to play with fire. Boy I hope that you enjoyed your fun. Cuz you coulda been the one
