I Should Have Married You

We were walking down the boardwalk

Watching stars out on the ocean

We were drunk on margaritas

And that might have been my moment

But we stood there in silence

And watched the waves crash

Vacation with your family

After midnight, in the kitchen

I was hangin' with your dad

I could have asked him but I didn't

I don't know why, I guess I thought I had more time

If I hadn't been so young and stupid

Yeah, I let somebody beat me to it

Don't know what you got until you lose it

Guess I blew it, baby

I should have married you

That's just the way it goes

I should have seen it through

I should have let you know

I should have said, "I do"

Back when I still had the chance, yeah

I should have married you

Maybe I thought I needed freedom

Maybe it's all about the timing

Maybe I wouldn't let my ego

Let somebody tie me down

Aw, but I can't blame you for not waitin' around

If I hadn't been so young and stupid

I wish I would have known, wish I would have known

Yeah, I let somebody beat me to it (Whoa, yeah)

Don't know what you got until you lose it

Guess I blew it, baby

I should have married you

That's just the way it goes (Way it goes)

I should have seen it through (Seen it through)

I should have let you know (Let you know)

I should have said I do (Said, "I do")

Back when I still had the chance, yeah

I should have married you

Whoa-oh, oh

Whoa-oh, oh

If I hadn't been so young and stupid

I wish I would have known, wish I would have known

I let somebody beat me to it (Whoa, yeah)

Don't know what you got until you lose it

Guess I blew it, baby

I should have married you

That's just the way it goes (Way it goes)

I should have seen it through (Seen it through)

I should have let you know (Let you know)

I should have said I do (Said, "I do")

Back when I still had the chance, yeah

I should have married you

Back when I still had the chance, yeah

I should have married you
