Lyrics for Song: You Should've Told Me
Lyrics for Album: Mirror Mirror



I wouldn't call in the midnight hour
I wouldn't tuck you in and turn the nightlight out
You would walk through the door and I wouldn't say hi
I would walk out the door and wouldn't say bye-bye
It's funny that I never thought about it that way
I never knew the things that I did not say
But you were lonely and you were hungry
And I was living in my own world
Thinking I'm a perfect lady

You should've told me
I wasn't small enough
You should've told me
I didn't call enough
But you led me on
And kept me going
And we never should've wasted this time
You should've told me
I wasn't wild enough
You should've told me
I didn't smile enough
What you had in my mind
Made me lose my mind
And we never should've wasted this time

I was in bed I'd help you take your clothes off
When it was time for work didn't see you off
When your tense didn't give a massage
I never told you I think you're hot
It's funny I never thought about it that way
Never knew the things I did not say
But you were lonely and you were hungry
And I was living in my own world
Thinking I'm a perfect lady

You should've told me
I wasn't small enough
You should've told me
I didn't call enough
But you led me on
And kept me going
And we never should've wasted this time
You should've told me
I wasn't wild enough
You should've told me
I didn't smile enough
What you had in my mind
Made me lose my mind
And we never should've wasted this time

When you thought you had to lie
Why didn't you come and tell me why?
Didn't you see those tears I cried?
Oh why?

You should've told me
I wasn't small enough
You should've told me
I didn't call enough
But you led me on
And kept me going
And we never should've wasted this time
You should've told me
I wasn't wild enough
You should've told me
I didn't smile enough
What you had in my mind
Made me lose my mind
And we never should've wasted this time


About You Should've Told Me

Kelly Price's "You Should've Told Me" stands as a poignant centerpiece on her 2009 album *Mirror Mirror*, showcasing her signature blend of soulful R&B and gospel-infused pop.

The song's narrative explores themes of regret and missed opportunities within a romantic context, delivered through Price's distinctive, powerful vocal range that has become a hallmark of her discography. As part of the broader *Mirror Mirror* project, the recording reflects the era's shift toward more organic, piano-driven arrangements while maintaining the high-energy gospel roots that define her career.
