Brian McKnight - Should Have Been Loving You lyrics

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.

[CHORUS:]

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.

[CHORUS]

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.

[CHORUS x2]

Aaaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, aaaah.

Aaaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, aaaah.

Aaaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, aaaah.

Aaaaah, aaaah, aaaaah, aaaah.
