you should've told me

i wouldn't call in the midnight hour

i wouldn't tuck you in and turn the nightlight out

you would walk through the door and i wouldn't say hi

i would walk out the door and wouldn't say bye-bye

it's funny that i never thought about it that way

i never knew the things that i did not say

but you were lonely and you were hungry

and i was living in my own world

thinking i'm a perfect lady

you should've told me

i wasn't small enough

you should've told me

i didn't call enough

but you led me on

and kept me going

and we never should've wasted this time

you should've told me

i wasn't wild enough

you should've told me

i didn't smile enough

what you had in my mind

made me lose my mind

and we never should've wasted this time

i was in bed i'd help you take your clothes off

when it was time for work didn't see you off

when your tense didn't give a massage

i never told you i think you're hot

it's funny i never thought about it that way

never knew the things i did not say

but you were lonely and you were hungry

and i was living in my own world

thinking i'm a perfect lady

you should've told me

i wasn't small enough

you should've told me

i didn't call enough

but you led me on

and kept me going

and we never should've wasted this time

you should've told me

i wasn't wild enough

you should've told me

i didn't smile enough

what you had in my mind

made me lose my mind

and we never should've wasted this time

when you thought you had to lie

why didn't you come and tell me why?

didn't you see those tears i cried?

oh why?

you should've told me

i wasn't small enough

you should've told me

i didn't call enough

but you led me on

and kept me going

and we never should've wasted this time

you should've told me

i wasn't wild enough

you should've told me

i didn't smile enough

what you had in my mind

made me lose my mind

and we never should've wasted this time
