It Should Have Been Me Lyrics

I think of you now and then
But 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
I don't wanna say goodbye to you again, my love

Should′ve been me that's loving you
Instead of someone else
I needed you but how was I to know
Should've been me that′s holding 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
It could never be the same again, my love
The more we see, the less we know
Now you believe our love could grow
I don′t wanna say goodbye to you again, my love

Should've been me that′s holding you
Instead of someone else
I needed you but never let it show
Should've 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 when I need a friend
To help me find a place to start

Oh, should've been me that′s holding you
Instead of someone else
I needed you but how was I to know
Should've been me that's loving you
Through all the lonely nights
I knew that I should never let you go

My love
My love
