Shoulda Been Lovin' You Lyrics & Chords By Brian Mcknight

Uuuuum

Thinking 'bout all the times I let you down.
Now both my feet are firmly planted on the ground.

Hurting you was never in my plan,
I was trying to be the man.

I try to reach you
But you won't answer my call
And I don't blame ya.

I never dreamed that you
You'd want nothing to do with me.

I know it's true (shoulda been)
Instead of runnin' around,
I should've been lovin' you.
-(shoulda been)
Instead of breaking your heart
-(shoulda been lovin' you)
And baby I'm so sorry for the things I put you through
-(shoulda been lovin you)
Now I'm starring in the mirror at a fool
Who should been lovin' you!
(shoulda been)
Who shoulda been lovin' you
-(shoulda been)
Oooooooh
-(shoulda been lovin you)

I'm thinking 'bout every time I lied unto your face
You saw right through me but still you gave me my space.
Shouldn't have to tell a grown man what to do
I thought I was so damn cool.

Baby I miss you but you're moving on with your life,
And I can't stop you.

I could have never surmised that I'd be standing all alone with tears fallin' from my eyes.

I know it's true (shoulda been)
Instead of runnin' around,
I should've been lovin' you.
-(shoulda been)
Instead of breaking your heart
-(shoulda been lovin' you)
And baby I'm so sorry for the things I put you through
-(shoulda been lovin you)
Now I'm starring in the mirror at a fool
Who should been lovin' you!
(shoulda been)
Who shoulda been lovin' you
-(shoulda been)
Oooooooh
-(shoulda been lovin you)

Aaaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, aaaah.
Aaaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, aaaah.

There's what you want.
You walk away from me.

This is not, this is not the way it was supposed to be
Heaven knows how hard I prayed that Jesus could find a way
I would've have done, I would've have said anything to make you stay.

This is not like anything in my life that I've ever felt
What am I gonna do the first time I see you hooked up with somebody else.

I think I might lose my mind.
Inside my heart will be bleeding.

That what I get
That's what I deserve
For being out there cheating.

I know it's true (shoulda been)
Instead of runnin' around,
I should've been lovin' you.
-(shoulda been)
Instead of breaking your heart
-(shoulda been lovin' you)
And baby I'm so sorry for the things I put you through
-(shoulda been lovin you)
Now I'm starring in the mirror at a fool
Who should been lovin' you!
(shoulda been)
Who shoulda been lovin' you
-(shoulda been)
Oooooooh
-(shoulda been lovin you)

I know it's true (shoulda been)
Instead of runnin' around,
I should've been lovin' you.
-(shoulda been)
Instead of breaking your heart
-(shoulda been lovin' you)
And baby I'm so sorry for the things I put you through
-(shoulda been lovin you)
Now I'm starring in the mirror at a fool
Who should been lovin' you!
(shoulda been)
Who shoulda been lovin' you
-(shoulda been)
Oooooooh
-(shoulda been lovin you)

Aaaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, aaaah.
Aaaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, aaaah.
Aaaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, aaaah.
Aaaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, aaaah.
