Question
Who sings the song "if it hadnt been for losing you id still be back in jackson, settling for settling.....so what so what"

Answer
Hello Frannie,

That's "So What" by Tammy Cochran.

Should've been easy, but it wasn't.
Should've been painless, but it's not.
Should've seen the truth in you, but I didn't.
Should've done a lot of things, so what, so what?

If it hadn't been for losing you, I'd still be back in Jackson
Settling for settling, and getting what I got.
But where I am, and who I am, was well worth every lesson.
Guess you could say I've learned a lot.
Yeah, you broke my heart, so what?

Could've cried a river for you, but I wouldn't.
Could've just laid down and given up.
Could've tried to be somebody I wasn't.
I could have asked her name for what, for what?

If it hadn't been for losing you, I'd still be back in Jackson
Settling for settling, and getting what I got.
But where I am, and who I am, was well worth every lesson.
Guess you could say I've learned a lot.
Yeah, you broke my heart, so what?

So what if it hurt me for a little while?
So what if some teardrops never fall?
So what if I never thought I'd love again?
I know it's better for it all.

If it hadn't been for losing you, I'd still be back in Jackson
Settling for settling, and getting what I got.
But where I am, and who I am, was well worth every lesson.
Guess you could say I've learned a lot.
Yeah, you broke my heart, so what?
Yeah, you broke my heart, so what?


Glad to be of help. Cheers.......Mel.
