I Should Have Married You

We were walkin' down the boardwalk
Watchin' stars out on the ocean
We were drunk on margaritas
And that might've 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've 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've married you

That's just the way it goes
I should've seen it through
I should've let you know
I should've said, "I do"
Back when I still had the chance, yeah
I should've married you

Maybe I thought I needed freedom
Maybe it's all about the timin'
Maybe I wouldn't let my ego
Let somebody tie me down
Oh, but I can't blame you for not waitin' around

If I hadn't been so young and stupid
(I wish I would've known, wish I would've 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've married you

That's just the way it goes (way it goes)
I should've seen it through (seen it through)
I should've let you know (let you know)
I should've said, "I do" (said, "I do")
Back when I still had the chance, yeah
I should've married you

Whoa, oh, oh-oh
Whoa, oh, oh-oh

If I hadn't been so young and stupid
(I wish I would've known, wish I would've 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've married you

That's just the way it goes (way it goes)
I should've seen it through (seen it through)
I should've let you know (let you know)
I should've said, "I do" (said, "I do")
Back when I still had the chance, yeah
I should've married you

Back when I still had the chance, yeah
I should've married you
