It Should Have Been Me

I think of you, now and then

'Cause I remember

When love was new

And you were mine, my love

So why should we pretend

We were lovers, but now we're friends?

Don't wanna say goodbye

To you again, my love

It should have been me

That's holding you

Instead of someone else

I needed you, but never let it show

It should have been me

That's loving you

Through all the lonely nights

I knew that I should never let you go

My love

What we once had is gone

No tears, no right, no wrong

We could never be

The same again, my love

The more we see, the less we know

You still believe our love could grow

Don't wanna say goodbye

To you again, my love

It should have been me

That's holding you

Instead of someone else

I needed you, but never let it show

It should have been me

That's loving you

Through all the lonely nights

I knew that I should never let you go

My love, how would I survive

With another broken heart?

On my own again

Just a lonely man

Looking for a place to start

It should have been me

That's holding you

Instead of someone else

I needed you, but never let it show

It should have been me

That's loving you

Through all the lonely nights

I knew that I should never let you go

My love

My love
