Linda Kelly

[Intro] The past can't be changed. No words can fix it. My love, my hope remains. (You. Can't. Take. That. Away...) (You. Can't. Take. That. Away...) (You. Can't. Take. That. Away...) [brief instrumental, a bit of a breath here] [Verse 1] You weren't allowed to tell me (weren't allowed to tell me) I understand about confidentiality, Yet I still wonder why, Why this had to be... (why this had to be) What would you have done, If in my shoes? What could possibly be done, If this happened to you? That day... (that day) After hanging up the phone, I wailed, cried, and screamed As I walked to work alone. Helpless! Powerless! Hurt! Frustrated! Heartbroken! Wounded! Anxious! Stressed! What would you have done, If in my shooooes?! What could possibly be done, If this happened to yooooou?! [Pre-Chorus] You probably won't find this song, But, I'm unable to forget these wrongs! I needed, needed, needed... needed, needed, NEEDED...!! [Chorus] You shouldn't have ignorrrred, When I needed somebody to help me. You should have given me tiiiime! Not a damn iota of sympathy, Not even a moment of pity, I'm unable to forgive you... Linda Kellyyyyy! Linda Kellyyyyy! [a bit of breathing room] [Verse 2] You couldn't have someone contact me... (no one contacted me) I wanted you to hear my story You gave me silence Saw no other reply Salt in the wound, So here I vent, Wondering whyyyyy! What would you have done, If in my shooooes?! What could possibly be done, If this happened to yooooou?! That time, (that time) I waited for daaaaays Felt a heavy injustice So much I wanted to saaaay! Anger! Pain! Frustration! Patience straaaaaained!! Anxiety! More stress! Helplessness! More heartbreak! What would you have done, If in my shooooes?! [Pre-Chorus] You probably won't find this song, But, I'm unable to forget these wrongs! I needed, needed, needed... needed, needed, NEEDED...!! [Chorus] You shouldn't have ignorrrred, When I needed somebody to help me. You should have given me tiiiime! Not a damn iota of sympathy, Not even a moment of pity, I'm unable to forgive you... Linda Kellyyyyy! Linda Kellyyyyy! [Bridge] Months pass. Nothing good out of this mess I'm leaving my message I don't care if you have regrets [Pre-Chorus] You probably won't find this song, But, I'm unable to forget these wrongs... [Chorus] You shouldn't have ignorrrred, When I needed somebody to help me. You should have given me tiiiime! Not a damn iota of sympathy, Not even a moment of pity, I'm unable to forgive you... Linda Kellyyyyy! Linda Kellyyyyy! (Linda Kellyyyyy) [Outro] Been done with you, Linda Kellyyyyy! Been done with you, Linda Kellyyyyy! All your volunteers, too Linda Kellyyyyy!
