Lyrics

I SHOULD HAVE SEEN IT COMING

I. When I started out I was oh so strong
Everything I did, I knew it wouldn?t take long
I just knew that I couldn?t be wrong
But that wasn?t right

Now my knees hurt me when I run
I get so scared I went and bought me a gun
I?m not allowed to go out in the sun
I?m pale and I?m white

CHORUS:
I shoulda seen it comin?
It should have come as no surprise
I didn?t see it comin?
It came and hit me right between the eyes
I shoulda seen it comin?
I shoulda seen it comin?

II. I had a girl who I thought loved me
She was everything I dreamed she?d be
Then I was blind, but now I see
I see the light

She liked me, but I loved her
Even on this, we just couldn?t concur
Don?t recall much, it?s all just a blur
Except for the fighting?
CHORUS:

III. The girl who was in the last verse
Is with my friend you know there ain?t nothing worse
I need a doctor or maybe a nurse
For me to get through

And the light I thought I saw was a train
Heading straight at me, now how?s that for sane
Overall, I guess I think in the main
No surprise that I?m blue
