Should Have Been Loved

You've been let down

Messed around

Told to get your feet back on the ground

When you should have been loved

Love, love (Should have been loved)

You should have been loved

(Should have been loved)

You been ripped off

Written off

Told an act of kindness makes you soft

When you should have been loved

Love, love (Should have been loved)

You should have been loved

(Should have been loved)

But all your detractors

Underestimated you

'Cause they don't know you like I do

I've been rough

You put up with stuff

Yeah, times when we thought you'd had enough

When you should have been loved

Love, love (Should have been loved)

You should have been loved

(Should have been loved)

And then they hang you

You tried to do

Got you treated like a jumper in a queue

When you should have been loved

Love, love (Should have been loved)

You should have been loved

(Should have been loved)

But when there was pity

And when there was wealth

You wasted neither on yourself

You should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Oh, your detractors

Underestimated you

'Cause they don't know you like we do

I been let down

Messed around

Told to get my feet back on the ground

When I should have been loved

Love, loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved

Should have been loved
