SHOULD'VE COULD'VE WOULD'VE
I should’ve tried harder, I should’ve tried to make you a part of my world
I should’ve made
it clear, I should’ve made you my girl
I should’ve of
asked you to stay, I should’ve told you not to leave.
I should’ve acted
better, I should’ve been the man you needed me to be.
I should’ve held
you a little tighter, I should’ve kissed you a little more
I should’ve been
there when you needed me, I should’ve never let your feet hit the floor
I should’ve said I
love you, I should’ve told you the truth.
I should’ve
listened when you spoke , I should’ve talked to you.
I should’ve
looked you in the eyes, I should’ve kept you close.
I could’ve of
shown you the world, I could’ve made you smile.
I could’ve been
your world, I could’ve raised our child.
I could’ve
spoiled you with you love, I could’ve held your hand.
I could’ve made
you happy, I could’ve made things grand.
I could’ve of
stood by your side, I could’ve had your back.
I could’ve
encouraged you, I could’ve kept your mind intact.
I could’ve
satisfied your needs, I could’ve supported your dreams.
I could’ve given
you my all, I could’ve quieted your screams.
I could’ve been
your future, I could’ve been your partner in life
We would’ve
changed the world, we would’ve been forever.
We would’ve
started a love, we would’ve always stayed together.
We would’ve had a
family, we would’ve shared a past.
We would’ve been
together, we would’ve made it last.
We would’ve loved
each other, we would’ve worked as two
We would’ve been
great lovers, we would’ve been best friends too.
We would’ve
walked the earth together; we would’ve been husband and wife.
We would’ve been
two lovers; we would’ve lived one life.
We should’ve, we
could’ve, and we would’ve.
Wow, really decent. Well done. So difficult to get the pace right with that repetition, but I think you cracked it. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThank you sir! Yeah the repetition can be tricky if it doesn't flow.
