Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It should have been you
It could've been you
It should have been you
It could've been you
[Verse 2]
When we first got together
We thought our love could stand the test
Waited, oh, so long
Couldn't settle for second best
[Verse 3]
No one else could make me feel the way you do
Broke my heart in two
When you said our love was through
Ooh, whoa
[Verse 4]
It should have been you
(Ooh, I know, I know)
It could've been you
It should have been you
(Ooh, yeah)
It could've been you
[Verse 5]
Through pain, tears, and heartache
We see our love can't last
Oh, it's time for new beginnings
Can't live in the past
[Verse 6]
With my back to the wind
I face a new horizon
Believe me when I tell ya it's true
Even though our love is through
[Verse 7]
It should have been you
(Oh, I know, I know)
It could've been you
It should have been you
(Oh, baby)
It could've been you
[Verse 8]
It should have been you
It could've been you
It should have been you
It could've been you
[Verse 9]
It should have been you
Oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
[Verse 10]
I've been searching such a long time
True love's so hard to find
I've been searching such a long time
True love's so hard to find
[Verse 11]
I've been searching such a long time
True love's so hard to find
I've been searching such a long time
True love's so hard to find
I've been searching such a long time
True love's so hard to find
Oh
[Verse 12]
I've been searching such a long time
It could've been you
Wonder will I ever find
It should have been you
A man so warm and true?
It could've been you
Who'd love me like you used to do
It should have been you
[Verse 13]
I've been searching such a long time
It could've been you
True love's so hard to find
It should have been you
I've been searching such a long time
True love's so hard to find (It could've been you)
I've been searching such a long time
[Verse 14]
True love's so hard to find (It should have been you)
I've been searching such a long time
True love's so hard to find (It could've been you)
Ooh, whoa
(It should have been you)
