Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda, Blues

I found a woman down in New Orleans
Who stole my heart
And knocked me flat off my feet yeah
She had a smile like you would not believe
I loved her style
Cause she was so damn unique yeah
The way she walked and talked
And carried herself
She made me feel like
There was nobody else
For me yeah
She was all that I needed
I gave her love and time
And all of my attention but
She must've felt like there was
Something else missing cause
I never thought that I would ever see the day
That me and her throw in the towel
And go our separate ways but uh
Such is life
And now I'm sitting here barley sober and
I'm texting every girl in my phone
Come over here
I try to drown the pain but that just don't work
Cause every girl I lay with
I think that

This could have been her
This would have been her
This should have been her
This could have been her
This would have been her
This should have been her
And I don't know what to do
I got the Coulda Woulda Shoulda
Kind of blues
Could've been her
Would've been her
Should've been her

Nobody's ever made me smile like she did
With her it was the happiest that I've been yeah
Sometimes I still can hear her voice in my head
I feel her touching me
but know she's not there yeah
I try to tell myself to gather my composure but
I don't think that I'll ever
Have the proper closure cause
When couples leave each other
And they break up
The one that always stuffers
Was the real one in love yeah
Broke up a year ago today
That's why I'm drinking and
This Hennessy I'm sipping on
Has got me thinking that
If I could turn back time
And live our better days
I probably would do it
And I wouldn't change a thing but uh
My friends keep telling me
I need to move on
Cause no one wants to hear
The same old sad song
But if I find somebody
And I try to make it work
I'm scared I'll have a flash back
And think that

This Could have been her
Could've been her
This Would have been her
Would've been her
This Should have been her
Should've been her
This Could have been her
Could've been her
This Would have been her
Would've been her
This Should have been her
Should've been her
And I don't know what to do
I got the Coulda Woulda Shoulda
Kind of blues
Could've been her
Would've been her
Should've been her
And I don't know what to do
I got the Coulda Woulda Shoulda
Kind of blues
