Savoy You Should've Told Me
You Should've Told Me
In the morning
And the air so still
Cars are passing
By my window sill
Dusty sidewalks, in the afternoon
Coastal mountains, I will be there soon
You should have told me
Should have told you
I should have told you, that the dam won't hold
I should have called you, but the line went cold
I should have held you in my arms each night
I should've told you when the time was right
Should have told me
Should have told you
Seasons will turn
Never will I learn
Moments will pass
I always think they'll last
You should have told me
I should have told you, when I had the chance
I should have told you, just the way I planned
Dusty sidewalk in the afternoon,
Coastal mountains, I will be there soon.
You should have told me
Seasons will turn
Never will I learn
Moments will pass
You always think they'll last
You should have told me
Moments will pass
Moments will pass
You should have told me
I should have told you
You should have told me
I should have told you
You should have told me
I should have told you
Foreign Film
Life should be a film
One of those foreign films
Where people are always talking
And you just can't understand
But it means a lot
Life should be a book
A really, really good book
That you take when you travel
And hope it never ends
And you read again
Life should be a poetry,
A pretty, pretty tree
Words have their meanings
To help you understand
And say what you mean
You're giving me a stomach ache
When you negotiate
You're giving me a stomach ache
When you try and set me straight
Life should be a song
One of those sixties songs
With lots of catchy phrases
That everybody knows
So you can sing along
Life should be a poetry
A pretty, pretty tree
Words have their meanings
To help you understand
And say what you mean
You're giving me a stomach ache
When you negotiate
You're giving me a stomach ache
When you try and set me straight
You're giving me a stomach ache
When you negotiate
And when you set me straight
You're giving me a stomach ache
Life should be a tree
A poetry
