Strange are the ways
You can feel down inside
But because you're afraid
You know those feelings you try to hide
You sacrifice the simple pleasures you could have
With the one you know you want and need so bad
So I try other things
Thinkin' that maybe they will suffice
But you arrive in my dreams
Man it's crazy how you're on my mind
I'm wondering where we'd be
If I belong to you and you belong to me, yea
Then the truth sets in again
Should've been you
Who was standing by my side
Should've been you
Who'd make everything alright
Should've been you
Who I gave my heart to
And now I'm so confused
Cuz I need you
So I say to myself
Maybe today I'll give it a try
But I don't even speak
I only smile when you pass me by
What can I say
What can I do
To get you to notice me
I've wasted too much time
To make you see
Should've been you
Who was standing by my side
Should've been you
Who'd make everything alright
Should've been you
Who I gave my heart to
And now I'm so confused
Cuz I need you
So I know now
That's it's much, much too late and
The possibilities not that great
But with this one last chance
I'm offering an endless romance
Girl can't you see
You're the only one
For me
So we sing
Do, do, do
Do, do, do
Do, do, do, do
Do, do, do
Do, do, do
Do, do, do
Should've been you
Who was standing by my side
Should've been you
Who'd make everything alright
Should've been you
Who I gave my heart to
And now I'm so confused
Cuz I need you
Ooo, Ooo
