Higgins, Missy - Was There Anything I Could Do Lyrics






She comes home and she's happy
She comes home and she's blue
She comes home and she tells him
Listen baby we're through

I don't know what happened next
All I know is she moved
Packed up her bags and her curtains
Left him in his room

Was there anything I could do?
Was there anything I could do?

She went out with her paint box
Paints the chapel blue
She went out with her matchsticks
Torched a car wash too

And I don't know where she's living
All I've got is a card
A picture of her at the pyramids
A knife held to her heart

Was there anything I could do?
Was there anything I could do?

She came down from the mountains
Said goodbye to her guru
And she went back to her room
Lost herself in voodoo

And I don't say that I blame her
People don't know what they want
If you spend your life looking behind you
You don't see what's in front

Was there anything I could do?
Was there anything I could do?

Was there anything
Was there anything I could do?
Was there anything
Was there anything I could do?

Putting out her fire
Putting out her fire
Putting out her fire

    Who's here because of the amazing OTH?

    That tv series changed my life. ❤ I will always turn to it when I'm going through a hard time.

  27. M.... M....

    I find women write breakup songs from a completely different perspective than men. No disrespect to men (cuz I am one) but this is a brutally honest, open and accepting reality of her situation. "It's been great and I thank you, but it's time to move on, even thought that's not what I want." My take. And a really great song.

  28. U.... W....

    I just heard this on the radio like a normal person would 🤷‍♂️

  29. s.... c....

    31/10/09........through to current and beyond.......

  30. K.... ....

    Broke up with my ex for the same reasons this song conveys. I grew up with this song but it's been a long time since I've heard it and I looked it up today and I understood the meaning behind it finally. Hurts so much but its what's needed.

  71. M.... ....

    I'm here because this song has been stuck in my head for like, 6 months

  72. D.... D....

    This song is so mature......It is a love song.....about knowing what is good for yourself and the person you love......and when the love is there....no denying it is there, but you have to leave....It isn't about being self-centered....I think she wants to stay, but she can't.....and it just hurts.....she leaves for her partner and herself. It is sad, but strengthening as well....It isn't weak......It means a lot to me!!

  73. D.... L....

    classic!
