Love Shoulda Brought You Home

Should I even listen?
Should I even try?
Will I just be hearing
The same old lines, baby?

See it doesn't matter
What you say this time
'Cause our whole relationship
Is built on one lie

You say things aren't the way they seem
But still you can't come straight with me
How can you think that you're in love
When you don't know the meaning of?

Love shoulda brought you
Brought you home last night
You shoulda been with me
Shoulda been right by my side
Baby, if you cared anything for me
Then love woulda brought you to me last night

I gotta hand it to ya
You had me there for a while
I was so in love with you
I couldn't see past your smile

Now I smell the coffee, boy
I got a wake up call
And it left the message
That you just don't care at all

You can't expect me
To believe that she does not mean anything
You say that you love only me
Your kinda lovin,' my darling
I just don't need

Love shoulda brought you
Brought you home last night
You shoulda been with me
Shoulda been right by my side
Baby, if you cared anything for me
Then love woulda brought you to me last night

Love shoulda brought you
Brought you home last night
You shoulda been with me
Shoulda been right by my side
Baby, if you cared anything for me
Then love woulda brought you to me last night
(And I wouldn't be in tears)
(And love woulda brought you to me last night)

Oh, baby why? Why do men think that
Love's just for the moment
Not overtime?
Please tell me why
Why should I think that you're gonna be sincere?
Are you deservin'?
Don't blame me if I just don't believe, just don't believe
That you'll always be here

Love shoulda brought you
Brought you home last night
You shoulda been with me
Shoulda been right by my side
Baby, if you cared anything for me
Then love woulda brought you to me last night

Love shoulda brought you
Brought you home last night
You shoulda been with me
Shoulda been right by my side
Baby, if you cared anything for me
Then love woulda brought you to me last night

Love shoulda brought you
Brought you home last night
You shoulda been with me
Shoulda been right by my side
Baby, if you cared anything for me
Then love woulda brought you to me last night

Love shoulda brought you
Brought you home last night
You shoulda been with me
Shoulda been right by my side
Baby, if you cared anything for me
Then love woulda brought you to me last night
