It Should've Been You

Lyrics

Oh baby
 Oh baby
 I dreamed of you last night
 And oh, your face was so very clear
 All I could do is think about the good times
 That you and I used to share
 I could still remember the last time
 Oh, I held you in my arms
 But all those days have come and gone now
 And all I seem to do is cry
 It hurts
 (It hurts)
 Remembering how things used to be
 We thought our love
 (Our love)
 Could last throughout eternity
 Now it's history, baby
 It should've been you
 It should've been me
 It would've been all those things in life
 Was meant to be
 But if I had you, oh babe
 This time you'd see
 You would have all my love
 I kept inside of me
 (I kept inside)
 Well, have you got somebody else
 Yes, I've got somebody too
 But you know I've finally realized
 No one could ever take the place of you, no
 I'm not the one to place the blame
 Or for whatever the fault just might be
 All I need is to find a little happiness
 Oh, in life that will fulfill me
 It's you
 (It's you)
 It's you that means more to me
 Without your love
 It's nothin' more than fantasy
 Baby, come back to me
 It should've been you, oh girl
 It should've been me
 It would've been all those things in life
 Was meant to be
 It should've been you
 It should've been me
 We could've built a love so strong
 But my eyes were closed and I didn't see
 Oh, it should've been you, baby
 It should've been me
 It would've been all those things in life
 That was meant to be, was meant to be, meant to be, babe
 Oh, if I had you, girl
 This time you'll see
 This time you would have all the love
 All the love, all the love that I kept inside of me
 You know so much time has passed
 Since you and I've being together
 So much time till I
 I don't know quite how to start
 All I know is that from that day until this
 You remain on my mind and in my heart
 You know I was never really clear
 Just what went wrong
 I guess that's why I had to write this song
 If I know then what I know now
 I would have never let you go
 No way, no
 Oh, it hurts
 (It hurts)
 Remembering how things used to be
 We thought our love
 Could last throughout eternity
 Now it's history, whoa, baby
 It should've been you
 It should've been me
 It might've been all those things in life
 That was meant to be
 I know, I know, I know, I know it should've you
 It should've been me
 We could've built a love so strong
 But my eyes were closed and I can't be seen
 It should've been you
 Oh, it should've been me
 It would've been all those things in life
 That was meant to be, that was meant to be, oh
 Oh, I know if I had you, girl
 I know this time you'll see
 I'll show you, baby
 You could have all my love
 All the love, all the love I kept wrapped up inside of me, oh yeah
 Why don't you give me one more chance
 If you wanna be with me
 Take a chance with me, baby
 I woke up this morning with you on my mind
 Oh, baby
 Oh, baby
 Come on
 Try it again
 Let's start all over
 We can make it work this time
 Come on
