Should Have Been Loved

You've been let down, messed around

Told to get your feet back on the ground

When you should have been loved, loved, loved

Should have been loved

You've been ripped off, written off

Told an act of kindness made you soft

When you should have been loved, loved, loved

You should have been loved

But all your detractors underestimated you

Cause they don't know you like I do

You've slept rough, stolen stuff

Been beaten by a guy to show he's though

When you should have been loved, loved, loved

Should have been loved

And anything new you tried to do

Got treated like a jumper in a queue

When you should have been loved, loved, loved

Should have been loved

But when there was pity and when there was wealth

You wasted neither on yourself

Should have been loved, Should have been loved

Should have been loved, Should have been loved

Should have been loved, Should have been loved

Should have been loved, Should have been loved

All your detractors underestimated you

Cause they don't know you like I do, like I do

You've been let down, messed around

Told to get your feet back on the ground

When you should have been loved, loved, loved
