Billy Dean › Lyrics › I Shoulda Listened

Tonight, I'm as lonely as it gets
Wish I could say I've no regrets
But I didn't realize back then
Just exactly what I had
Now I do and it's so sad
Ooh, I miss you bad

I shoulda listened
To the beating of my heart
When I held you close
To the words I said when I said
"I'll never let you go"

I shoulda listened
To the voice inside my head
That said, "It's love"
Now all I hear
Is the sound of falling tears
I shoulda listened

My mind, doesn't hesitate to say
"Oh, you fool, you let her slip away"
But I just don't want to hear the truth
So I try to cover my ears
But I'm coming in louder and clear
Wish I had when you were here

I shoulda listened
To the beating of my heart
When I held you close
To the words I said when I said
"I'll never let you go"

I shoulda listened
To the voice inside my head
That said, "It's love"
Now all I hear
Is the sound of falling tears
I shoulda listened

Oh, I shoulda listened
To the voice inside my head
That said, "It's love"
Now all I hear
Is the sound of falling tears
I shoulda listened

Yes, all I hear
Is the sound of falling tears
I shoulda listened

I shoulda listened
(I shoulda listened)
I shoulda listened
