Just To Be Loved

de Bill Champlin

I coulda’ been long, I coulda’ been tall
I coulda’ been filthy rich, intelligent, I coulda’ had it all
But something went wrong, I shoulda’ just stalled
I never shoulda’ listened to my heart
Never shoulda’ answered when you called

I coulda’ been free, I shoulda’ been me
I shoulda’ been walkin’ tall, through it all
But now I’m on my knees
It shoulda’ been right, but we’re turnin’ out wrong
I shoulda’ just seen it in your eyes
Guess I shoulda known it all along

That you wanted something else from me
Something that you need, nobody ever had to give
All I wanted was something else from you
A little bit of truth, was all I ever needed

(Chorus)
You win, I’m gone, and I know you’ll get along
You can always find yourself another fool
Too thin, for too long, I’m never right, you’re never wrong
But I think I’m more than just another fool

I’m just another fool who’s leavin’ you behind
The latest in your line of other fools
I’m just another fool who found himself in time
I just don’t wanna’ be another fool

You coulda been real, you shoulda’ been wise
I was standin’ right before you, wide open all the time
You were livin’ a lie, I caught it in time
You were singin’ all your sweet songs
But your words just never rhyme

When I think of you it seems to me, a mind’s a terrible thing
When you use it just to win some private war
When it all comes down to you and I, it’s obvious to me
And baby, I surrender

(Repeat chorus)
