Could've Had My Love

Baby, I could've said
She was no good for you
But I let you go even though
I could've said to you: Please, stay

I hate to be the one to tell you
She's leaving you
I hate to be the one to tell you
But I'm talkin' on
I could've been the one who loved you
I could've been so true
I hate to be one to tell you
You could've had my love
You could've had my love

And now you you say you're sorry
For the things you've done
But now it's time, time for you
To be the lonely one, the lonely one

I hate to be the one to tell you
But you waited too long
I hate to be the one to tell you
But I'm talkin' on
I could've been the one who loved you
But the feeling's gone
I hate to be one to tell you
You could've had my love

Oh, just to think that I would run to you
We'll never see what's done with you
When you left me, boy, I was so sad
Never thought that I could hurt so bad

She's leavin' now it seems you got
Nowhere to turn, no, don't turn to me
There are too many times
That I've been burned, now I've learned

I hate to be the one to tell you
But you waited too long
I hate to be the one to tell you
But I'm talkin' on
I could've been the one who loved you
But the feeling's gone
I hate to be one to tell you
You could've had my love

I hate to be the one to tell you
But you waited too long
I hate to be the one to tell you
But I'm talkin' on
I could've been the one who loved you
But the feeling's gone
I hate to be one to tell you
You could've had my love
