Why Didn't I Think Of That

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

He says he wants her, can't live without her

Why didn't I think of that?

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

Think she needs to know

He tries to please her, he 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 else

Why didn't I think of that?

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 composes

Things a lady loves

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?
