Why Didn't I Think of That Songtext

von Doug Stone

He sends her roses and lines he composes
Things a lady loves.
Well he's there to hold her
When she needs a shoulder
If life gets too rough
Oh now that she's left
I keep kicking myself whenever
I start thinking back
He says he needs her,
Tells her he loves her,
Why didn't I think of that?

When she gets down
Well he's always around her,
He makes her smile again.
He mends her heartaches,
Remembers her birthday,
And tries to be a friend.
Now that she's gone
I know what I did wrong,
It's all so simple in fact.
Well he says he wants her,
Can't live without her,
Why didn't I think of that?

[Chorus]
Ooh I've been watching
Every move that he makes
Ooh I've been thinking,
It could have been different somehow
If I'd know what I know now.

He sings her love songs
And tells her his love's strong
Things she needs to know
He tries to please her,
And calls for no reason,
Just to say hello
He says he loves her
And he'll never leave her
And I never will get her back
I did my best,
Thought of everything eles,
Why didn't I think of that?

[Chorus]
Ooh i've been watching
Every move that he makes
Ooh I've been thinking,
It could have been different somehow
If i'd know what I know now.

He sends her roses
And lines he compses
Things a lady loves.
Well he's there to hold her
When she needs a shoulder
If life gets too rough
Oh now that she's left
I keep kicking myself whenever
I start thinking back
He says he needs her,
Tells her he loves her,
Why didn't I think of that?

He says he loves her
And he'll never leave her,
Why didn't I think of that?
