Before I hung up the phone
All I could hear
Was the dial tone ring in my ear
If I could go back in time
I'd say those three words

[Chorus:]
I shoulda, woulda, coulda said it back to you
And this can't be saved if you can't be found
You hung up and left me for dead on the ground
You didn't even say goodbye
I shoulda, woulda, coulda said it back to you
Shoulda, woulda, coulda said it back to you

Now that you're gone
I'm wasting away
The life has been siphoned right out of my veins
If I could go back in time
I'd say those three words

[Chorus]

When you said those three words, I kinda freaked out
When you said them first, my jaw hit the ground

Shoulda, woulda, coulda said it back to you
Shoulda, woulda, coulda said it back to you
And this can't be saved if you can't be found
You hung up and left me for dead on the ground
You didn't even say goodbye
And this can't be saved
(And this can't be saved)
If you can't be found
(If you can't be found)
And this can't be saved
I shoulda, woulda, coulda said it back to you
Shoulda, woulda, coulda said it back to you
