Circle left
He sends her roses and lines he composes
Things a lady loves
Left allemande now you dosado her
Left allemande and you weave
Now that she's left, I keep kicking myself
Whenever I start thinking back
He says he needs her, tells her he loves her
Why didn't I think of that?

Head (side) couples square thru it's 4 hands
go 'round now You make a right hand star
Heads (sides) star by the left and you turn it rollin' go 'round now
Same 2 touch 1/4
You scoot back and then you're gonna scoot back again
You'd better swing the corner all, promenade
He says he wants her, can't live without her
Why didn't I think of that?

Sides face, grand square
Ooh, I've been watchin', every move that he makes Ooh...I've been thinkin', it could'a been different somehow
Circle left
He sings her love songs, and tells her his love's strong
Left allemande and promenade
I did my best, thought of everything else
Why didn't I think of that?

4 boys promenade, you're gonna walk inside the ring now
Get back and swing with your lady
Join hands, circle to the left gonna walk around the ring now
Left allemande and you weave
Oh, now that she's gone, I know what I did wrong
It's all so simple in fact
He says he needs her, tells her he loves her
Why didn't I think of that?

Swing her boys
He says he loves her and he'll never leave her
Why didn't I think of that?

(lyrics for Opener)
He sends her roses and lines he composes; things a lady loves
Well, he's there to hold when she needs a shoulder if life gets too rough
Oh, now that she's left I keep kickin' myself whenever I start thinkin' back
He says he needs her; tells her he loves her
Why didn't I think of that?

(lyrics for Middle Break)
Ooh, I've been watchin', every move that he makes
Ooh...I've been thinkin', it coulda been different somehow
He sings her love songs, and tells her his love's strong; things she needs to know
I did my best, thought of everything else
Why didn't I think of that?

(lyrics for Closer)
When she gets down, well, he's always around now
He makes her smile again
He mends her heartaches; remembers her birthday and tries to be a friend
Now that she's gone I know what I did wrong; it's all so simple in fact:
He says he wants her; can't live without her
Why didn't I think of that?
