intro
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
chorus
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
I was wrong and now she's gone
verse
I went into shock, I couldn't eat, walk or talk
I was frozen to the floor
The pressure was on, as I dance 'round and 'round
She'd already shut the door
Before I die, I would trick my mind
To that star cursed night, I will make it right
bridge
What shoulda been will be
We will be holding on tight
And we will rest in peace
Together (together), forever and ever
chorus
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (but I said no, no, no)
Should a said yes (when I said no, no, no)
I was wrong and now she's gone
Oh, I was wrong and now she's gone
