Lyrics[]
Shoulda let me know that I had no chance at all
I could never be what you wanted
Shoulda let me know that you're still thinkin' about her
Shoulda told me you was on it
Sometimes I wonder why, why I even bother
Tryna pull you out, boy
Shoulda let me know I would lose you to the drink
Lift your eyes, lift your eyes
Just a little higher, just a little higher
Lift those eyes, look into mine
'Cause I can guide ya, I can guide ya
Lift those eyes, lift your eyes
I know that you're scared to death, runnin' out of breath
But I can hold you, hold you
Shoulda let me know that you worked around the clock
Coulda tried a little harder, yeah
Shoulda let me know that you were afraid to love me
Instead of lookin' like a liar
Sometimes I wonder why, why I even ask you
But I do
Lift your eyes, lift your eyes
Just a little higher, just a little higher
Lift those eyes, look into mine
'Cause I can guide ya, I can guide ya
Lift those eyes, lift your eyes
I know that you're scared to death, runnin' out of breath
But I can hold you, hold you
