It should have been you Could have been you It should have been you Could have been you When we first got together We thought our love would stand the test Waiting, oh, so long Can't settle for second best No one else could make me feel the way you do Broke me heart in two When you said your love was through It should have been you Could have been you It should have been you Could have been you Through pain, tears and heartache We see our love can't last It's time for new beginnings Can't live in the past With my back to the wind I face a new horizon Believe me when I say that it's true Even though our love is through Been searchin' such a long time True love's so hard to find Been searchin' such a long time True love's so hard to find No one else could make me feel The way you do Broke me heart in two When you said your love was through It should have been you Could have been you It should have been you Could have been you Been searchin' such a long time Wonder when I'll ever find A man so warm and true Who loves me like you used to do
