How Could You? - Lisa Stansfield

I get up and look outside

Not a cloud up in the sky

The flowers are just coming into bloom

All the lovers walk together hand in hand

But paradise is nothing without you

I didn’t move your coffee cup

The cigarettes that you gave up

All memories of things we used to do

Now I don’t even bother with my make-up

I just wanna turn around and wake up with you

To hold on forever

A lifetime you said

So you can see it came as a surprise

After all the promises you made

Just tell me one thing

How could you baby

How could you baby

Tell me right now

Tell me why you changed your mind

How could you baby

How could you baby

Take hold of my world

Turn it upside down then say goodbye

I try to cheer myself a while

But can’t remember how to smile

If only I could make some sense of this

What I wouldn’t say or do to hold you

I’d give everything I have to give you one more kiss

To hold on forever

A lifetime you said

So you can see it came as a surprise

After all the promises you made

Just tell me one thing

How could you baby

How could you baby

Tell me right now

Tell me why you changed your mind

How could you baby

How could you baby

Take hold of my world

Turn it upside down then say goodbye
