Lyrics Turrell's Lament - Kraak & Smaak, John Turrell

Turrell's Lament

Shoulda maybe stopped this from the start
Who are we kidding baby, it’s better that we’re apart
And I don’t know where to go no more
Everyday I walk around and call no place my home
Should made the time, shoulda made you walk, shoulda maybe led you on
Coulda maybe stopped around to say I was never your home
Coulda maybe looked at you in a way that said girl stay away
I don’t know what’s happening
Coulda maybe been seeing someone else but I didn’t want to let you know
And all this time I’ve known that I was wasting your time
And I know I been there before and I know
but who’s to say it’s all in the way
I don’t know where we went wrong… went wrong
What have I done now, where are we at
Who’s to say that it don’t matter now.
What have I done now, what can I see
There ain’t no other lover trying to bother me
Time’s been aching, what have I done to you… girl
I coulda been bigger, coulda done more
Baby coulda phoned you up with a call
But lover it ain’t what I do… no
Hey, love don’t matter and and boys don’t matter
and things don’t matter to me.
And life don’t matter and it’s just better if a man I know I’ll be
And lies don’t matter and a voice don’t matter
and my eyes don’t even see
Cause the love we had ain’t nothing bad
… but it’s over for me yeah, for me yeah
