Congratulations baby, it's been a while I heard through the grapevine that you're seeing a friend of mine I hate to say this baby but I think you should know I hear 'bout how she treats you everywhere I go I hear you're runnin', hidin', tryin' to be discreet But let me to tell you, there's no need for you to hide from me I've found someone who takes my lovin' seriously You've gambled and lost baby pay the cost For walking out on me It coulda been you loving me It woulda been everything you wanted a love to be It coulda been you holding me, seven days a week And baby if you wanted a real love you shoulda stayed with me So here you come talkin' baby, with the same ol' lines You're tryin' to break down my defense So you can tell me one more lie But I ain't hearin' you baby 'Cause you caused me pain This time you've gone too far And now you lost it all in vain You say you love me but I find it hard to believe It didn't take that long for you to get over me Now after all this time you're trying to get back with me But now the tables have turned and you're on the outside looking in It coulda been you loving me It woulda been everything you wanted a love to be It coulda been you holding me, seven days a week And baby if you wanted a real love you shoulda stayed with me It coulda been you loving me It woulda been everything you wanted a love to be It coulda been you holding me, seven days a week And baby if you wanted a real love you shoulda stayed with me I hear she's got you all stressed out It cost you a fortune just to take her out You say that she's takin' you for a ride I coulda told you so If I had my choice I would be with you But you could've done much better too And that's what you get for thinking that you could find a better love It coulda been you loving me It woulda been everything you wanted a love to be It coulda been you holding me, seven days a week And baby if you wanted a real love you shoulda stayed with me It coulda been you loving me It woulda been everything you wanted a love to be It coulda been you holding me, seven days a week And baby if you wanted a real love you shoulda stayed with me
