Should-A Said Yes
It's been 96 days since she laughed in my face
Knowing what I'd soon find out
She made up her mind, it was supremely on time
To let me guess what it was all about
She jumped out of bed
Threw a coat on herself
That's the last you'll ever get
Pull the trigger right now
What's so real? I'm out
Guess the best don't hit the rest
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
I was wrong and now she's gone
I went into shock, I couldn't eat, walk or talk
I was frozen to the floor
The pressure was on, as I dance 'round and 'round
She'd already shut the door
Before I die, I would trick my mind
To travel back in time
To that star cursed night, I will make it right
Us snappy, happy, happy
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
In the period of life
What shoulda been will be
We will be holding on tight
And we will rest in peace
Together (together), forever and ever
And ever, and ever
It's been 96 days since she laughed in my face
And running in her fountain of youth
It was super tough love from just up above
I guess I couldn't handle the truth
She jumped out of bed
Threw a coat on herself
She jumped out of bed
Threw a coat on herself
She jumped out of bed
Threw a coat on herself
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (when I said no, no, no)
I was wrong and now she's gone
Oh, I was wrong and now she's gone
Knowing what I'd soon find out
She made up her mind, it was supremely on time
To let me guess what it was all about
She jumped out of bed
Threw a coat on herself
That's the last you'll ever get
Pull the trigger right now
What's so real? I'm out
Guess the best don't hit the rest
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
I was wrong and now she's gone
I went into shock, I couldn't eat, walk or talk
I was frozen to the floor
The pressure was on, as I dance 'round and 'round
She'd already shut the door
Before I die, I would trick my mind
To travel back in time
To that star cursed night, I will make it right
Us snappy, happy, happy
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
In the period of life
What shoulda been will be
We will be holding on tight
And we will rest in peace
Together (together), forever and ever
And ever, and ever
It's been 96 days since she laughed in my face
And running in her fountain of youth
It was super tough love from just up above
I guess I couldn't handle the truth
She jumped out of bed
Threw a coat on herself
She jumped out of bed
Threw a coat on herself
She jumped out of bed
Threw a coat on herself
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (when I said no, no, no)
I was wrong and now she's gone
Oh, I was wrong and now she's gone
