Out Of Eden - Shoulda' Listened Lyrics
Ohhh... yeahI should have stopped, looked and listened before I proceededBut caution I threw to the windManyve been placed in my life to help lead me and guide meBut I didnt want to talk to themSo I ignored their advice and I tried to disguise pain from you and all the things you didThe wrong road was chosen my heart has been brokenCause I didnt want to hear themShoulda said what I didnt sayShoulda went right but I went left that dayShoulda prayed but instead I strayedShoulda gone a different wayShoulda listened to my motherWhen she said that you were no good for meShoulda listened to my pastorsWhen they told me turn around and leave you beShoulda listened to my sistersWhen they said that I was too blind to seeBut I see the light somehowAnd I vow to listen nowI had the chance to advance and it seemed like the bestOpportunity that I could getI didnt bother to see if my people agreedMaybe I knew what they would say and yetI didnt control it I kept going for itWhen I shoulda known it wasnt in Gods planHad to let go, had I listened beforeI wouldve said no from the doorShoulda said what I didnt sayShoulda went right but I went left that dayShoulda stayed but instead I strayedShoulda gone a different wayShoulda listened to my motherWhen she said that you were no good for meShoulda listened to my pastorsWhen they told me turn around and leave you beShoulda listened to my sistersWhen they said that I was too blind to seeBut I see the light somehowAnd I vow to listen nowShoulda listened to my motherWhen she said that you were no good for meShoulda listened to my pastorsWhen they told me turn around and leave you beShoulda listened to my sistersWhen they said that I was too blind to seeBut I see the light somehowAnd I vow to listen nowShoulda listened I know I shoulda listenedBut I know that I vow to listen nowShoulda listened I know I shoulda listenedBut you dont have to tell me twice I'm going to listen nowShoulda listened if only I had listenedBut Ive learned my lesson nowIm gonna listen nowShoulda listened cause I just cant be missingAll the things God has for meRepeat till end
