Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Walkin' round with my head down
But I can't hide with these high heels on
Downtown in a thick crowd
But it's just you that my mind is on
Dressed up, got my heart messed up
You got yours and I got mine, yeah
It's unfair that I still care
And I wonder where you are tonight
[Verse 2]
Thinkin' it could be different
But maybe we missed it, yeah
Thinkin' it could be different
It could, it could
[Verse 3]
It should've been us
Should've been a fire, should've been the perfect storm
It should've been us
Could've been the real thing, now we'll never know for sure, ooh
We were crazy but amazin', baby, we both know
It should've been us, us
It, it, it should've been us
[Verse 4]
Back and forth like a tug of war
What's it all for? Do I want it back?
I still got a little flame for ya
Even though you drove me mad
Now and then I pretend
That it's you when I close my eyes
You got yours, I got mine
But I wonder where you are tonight
[Verse 5]
It should've been us
Should've been a fire, should've been the perfect storm
It should've been us
Could've been the real thing, now we'll never know for sure, ooh
We were crazy but amazin', baby, we both know
It should've been us, us
It, it, it should've been us
[Verse 6]
Oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Should've been us, yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Should've been us
It, it, it should've been us
[Verse 7]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 8]
Thinkin' it could be different
But maybe we missed it
Thinkin' it could be different
It could, it could
[Verse 9]
It should've been us
Should've been a fire, should've been the perfect storm
It should've been us
Could've been the real thing, now we'll never know for sure, ooh
We were crazy but amazin', baby, we both know
It should've been us, us
It, it, it should've been us
[Verse 10]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Should've been us, yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Should've been us
It, it, it should've been us
[Verse 11]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Should've been us
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
You know it should've been us
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Should've been us
It, it, it should've been us
