Digby, Marie - Shoulda Been Simple Lyrics






Had every word prepared
Wasn't even scared
Rehearsed the scene a million times and still felt no where
You were just down the hall
Not knowing at all
What was about to happen when I laid it on the line

'Cause it's written on my face
Though you see it in my eyes
How do you tell someone you love
What's gonna hurt
Don't wanna hurt

So when I'm too long
And telling you what's wrong
I tryed and couldn't bring myself
(It shoulda been simple)
So many times I've tryed
The time was never right
It was so complicated
(It shoulda been simple)

Oh-oh oh-oh
(It shoulda been simple)
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
(It shoulda been simple)
[X2]

There's no time for fear
visions kinda happen
No matter how this ends today, I wanna leave here as friends
It's not that I don't love you (Don't love you)
Don't think that I don't care (Don't care)
We were trying to fly a plane, the wings were just not there

And it's written on my face
Though you see it in my eyes
How do you tell someone you love
What's gonna hurt
What's gonna hurt

So when I'm too long
And telling you, "Be strong."
I tryed and couldn't bring myself
(It shoulda been simple)
So many times I've tryed
The time was never right
It was so complicated
(It shoulda been simple)

Oh-oh oh-oh
(It shoulda been simple)
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh
(It shoulda been simple)
[X2]

Remember the day that we said that we wouldn't change
We changed
'Cause nothing's the same anymore since that day
That day

Shoulda been, Shoulda been, Shoulda been
(Shoulda been, Shoulda been)
[X4]

Shoulda been, Shoulda been, Shoulda been
(Oh-oh)
[X2]

    This is one of my favorite albums of all time. Easy to listen to the whole cd, which I've done countless times and never get sick of it.

    It is a masterpiece up there with the best ever for me - Kate Bush, Purple Rain, The Wall. She is a really special.

  14. T.... M....

    Love the song, love her voice, love Marie. I just think she's at her very best when she does acoustic songs. This stuff doesn't showcase her voice to the same extent

  15. M.... A....

  20. M.... ....

    i cried, because i exacally know this feeling

  21. N.... L....

    um I think "So when I'm too long
    And telling you, "Be strong." is actually " This went on too long. I'm telling you what's wrong."

  22. �.... ....

    who can hlp me find it!!!i wan>>---->> "shoulda been baby"
    i cant find it~
    make me wanna crazy man!!:p

  23. r.... ....

    How does she have all these emotions in her songs that I've felt in my life? :O I'm just dumbfounded...

  24. D.... ....

    theres always at least one song or more in musicians album that isnt good, but with Marie...evrything is almost perfect,,,it's "almost", becuase no one is perfect..but she's awesome and blessed by God with a really great voice and aspriring lyrics in her writing

  25. l.... e....

  26. k.... a....

    the tune its just same, i'm getting bored now =(

  27. J.... Z....

    The lyrics are so easy to relate to..

  28. J.... S....

    So im guessing 4 out of every 230 people are insane?

  29. C.... R....

  35. l.... ....

    your lyrics are wrong....

  36. J.... G....

    I think I just found my new favorite artist!

  37. R.... ....

    the songs sung by her can't be sung by anyone else....you know why?
    it's cuz no one can match her voice and emotions that she puts in the song

    It's beautiful all her songs!

  39. F.... ....

    much I have not heard a song so beautiful ... it is perfect

  40. Y.... R....

    like the beat..

  41. C.... B....

    i like how the song starts off with the beat...

  42. M.... ....

    Love the ending :)

  43. s.... j....

    your great marie digby :D:D:D!!!

  44. S.... ....

    I have to agree. I am a fan of her voice and songwriting. Her first album had really beautiful songs that touched you. This track "Shoulda Been Simple" has the right intentions, but the melody and lyrics don't work for me. It doesn't connect to me and it doesn't flow well. :(

  45. g.... ....

    I sort of disagree, I think she is awesome with both her acoustic music and this, She's the best musician I have ever heard, never heard an album before where I actually loved every singel song, I can't stop listening to her music =)

  46. S.... X....

    Ah, now i see what you mean. Yeah, i sorta do agree. i like her music mainly for the lyrics and her voice, so i'm not so bothered by that, but yeah, it is sorta generic sounding.

    Oh well, hope her next album sounds more original. =)

  47. S.... X....

    Its basic R&B. Practically every R&B song has some similiarities (Especially the beat).
