Shoulda Woulda Coulda (Philly Version)

People said that together we were both sides of the same coin

And we would shine like Venus in a clear, night sky

We thought our love could overcome the circumstances

But my ambition wouldn't allow for compromise

I could see in the distance all the dreams that we didn't mean

Every choice I had to make left you on your own

Somehow the road we started down had split asunder

Too late to realise how far apart we'd grown

And now I wish I

Wish I'd done a little bit more

'Cause now shoulda, woulda coulda means I'm outta time

Shoulda, woulda, coulda can't change your mind

And I wonder, wonder what I'm gonna do

Shoulda, woulda, coulda are the last words of a fool

People ask how it feels like to live the kinda life others dream about

I tell 'em everybody gotta face their highs and their lows

And in my life there's a love that I put aside

'Cause I was busy loving something else

And so for every little thing you hold onto

You gotta let something else go

And now I wish I

Wish I'd done a little bit more

'Cause now shoulda, woulda coulda means I'm outta time

Shoulda, woulda, coulda can't change your mind

And I wonder, wonder what I'm gonna do

Shoulda, woulda, coulda are the last words of a fool

If I would not forsake

The opportunities of fate

I know I'm right where I belong

But sometimes when I'm not that strong

Now I wish I

Wish I'd done a little bit more

Now shoulda, woulda coulda means I'm outta time

Shoulda, woulda, coulda can't change your mind

And I wonder, wonder what I'm gonna do

Shoulda, woulda, coulda are the last words of a fool
