Should've Been the One

My baby, should've been the one

Last night I was so scared

I couldn't close my eyes

You still live in me

Somehow I made it through the night

Rescured by the break of day, once again

I know someone's in your heart

It's pulling me apart

But I guess I'm the one to blame (it's so hard)

And it's so hard (so hard)

Holding back the tears now you've disappeared

How I long to hold you near

Oh I should've been the one who's with you now

Should've been the one that's feeling proud

I failed you now

Oh I should've read the signs in your eyes

Should've had the sense to realise

I've lost you now

I see you laughing out loud

Standing in a crowd

The same crowd I used to know

But it's too late now to change anything

I've lost everything

Gotta learn to let you go

Oh I should've been the one who's with you now

Should've been the one that's feeling proud

I failed you now

Oh I should've read the signs in your eyes

Should've had the sense to realise

I've lost you now

I should've been the light in your eyes (should've been the light)

Should've been the fire in your smile (should've been the fire)

I should've been your spirit and your guide

I wonder do you think of me? (do you think of me?)

Maybe you shed a tear for me (shed a tear for me)

I realise I paid the price

But nothing's gonna change the way I feel for you

Oh I should've been the one who's with you now

Should've been the one that's feeling proud

Girl I've failed you now

Should've read the signs in your eyes

Should've had the sense to realise

I've lost you now

I know I let you down baby

Had to fool around

Oh I should've been the one who's with you now

Should've been the one that's feeling proud

I failed you now

I should've read the signs baby

Should've realised

Oh I should've read the signs in your eyes

Should've had the sense to realise

I've lost you now
