Why Didn't I Think Of That

He sends her roses and lines he composes Things a lady loves Well, he's there to hold her when she needs a shoulder If life gets too rough Oh, now that she's left I keep kicking myself whenever I start thinking back He says he needs her, tells her he loves her Why didn't I think of that? When she gets down, well, he's always around her He makes her smile again He mends her heartaches, remembers her birthday And tries to be a friend Now that she's gone, I know what I did wrong It's all so simple in fact Well, he says he wants her, can't live without her Why didn't I think of that? Ooh, I've been watching, every move that he makes Ooh, I've been thinking, it could have been different somehow If I'd know what I know now He sings her love songs and tells her his love's strong Things she needs to know He tries to please her and calls for no reason Just to say hello He says he loves her, and he'll never leave her And I never will get her back I did my best, thought of everything else Why didn't I think of that? Ooh, I've been watching, every move that he makes Ooh, I've been thinking, It could have been different somehow If I'd know what I know now He sends her roses and lines he composes Things a lady loves He's there to hold her when she needs a shoulder If life gets too rough Oh, now that she's left I keep kicking myself whenever I start thinking back He says he needs her, tells her he loves her Why didn't I think of that? He says he loves her, and he'll never leave her Why didn't I think of that?
