"Should-A Said Yes" lyrics

"Should-A Said Yes"

It's been 96 days since she laughed in my face
Knowing what I'd soon find out
She made up her mind, it was supremely on time
To let me guess what it was all about
She jumped outta bed
Throw a coat on herself
That's the last you'll ever get
Pull the trigger right right now
What's so real? I'm out
Guess the best don't hit the rest

Should-a said yes (But I said n-no, no)
Should-a said yes (But I said n-no, no)
Should-a said yes (But I said n-no, no)
Should-a said yes (But I said n-no, no)
Well I was wrong and now she's gone

I went into shock, I couldn't eat, walk or talk
I was frozen to the floor
The pressure was on as I danced round and round
She'd already shut the door
Before I die, I would trick my mind
To travel back in time
To the star cursed night, I will make it right
A snappy, happy ending

Should-a said yes (But I said n-no, no)
Should-a said yes (But I said n-no, no)

In a parallel life
What shoulda been will be
We will be holding on tight
And we will rest in peace
Together (together), forever, and ever, and ever and ever

It's been 96 days since she laughed in my face
And dropped me in her fountain of youth
It was super tough love from just up above
I guess I couldn't handle the truth
She jumped outta bed
Throw a coat on herself
She jumped outta bed
Throw a coat on herself
She jumped outta bed
Throw a coat on herself

Should-a said yes (But I said n-no, no)
Should-a said yes (But I said n-no, no)
Should-a said yes (But I said n-no, no)
Should-a said yes (But I said n-no, no)

Well I was wrong and now she's gone
I was wrong and now she's gone
