I could be wrapped around your arms instead of bein' lonely
We could be gazin' at the stars, but now it feels just like I
Wandered off into a room and closed the door behind me
I never gave the key to you
Even though I wanted to
I should be trying something new, but now my body's achin'
I'm tired of dwellin' in the dark, it's just that my heart can't take it
I didn't know what it would cost me when I let you go
I feel alone, and I'm just singin', mmh, mmh-hm-hm
It should've been you
Another time, another place I just know, mmh, mmh-hm-hm
It could've been you
What a crime, and what a shame to let go, mmh, mmh-hm-hm
Sometimes I just don't know what to do
It should've been you
I could be drivin' to your place, but now the ground is shakin'
Could be a phase, but it feels like it will never go away
Until we make up, I can't be myself
I never knew how much I needed you, mmh, mmh-hm-hm
It should've been you
Another time, another place I just know, mmh, mmh-hm-hm
It could've been you
What a crime, and what a shame to let go, mmh, mmh-hm-hm
Sometimes I just don't know what to do
'Cause it should've been you
It should've been you
I could be wrapped around your arms instead of being lonely
It should've been you
Another time, another place I just know
You could've been the one who made me feel home
What a crime, and what a shame to let go, ooh-ooh-ooh
It should've been you
Another time, another place I just know
You could've been the one who made me feel at home
What a crime, and what a shame to let you go
Sometimes I just don't know what to do
It should've been you
