Chris Michaud - SHOULD'VE BEEN YOU

Was supposed to raise you up
But all I did was let you down
And then I let you go

How foolish in retrospect
Sat around while you left
How could I have ever known

'Cause it should've been you
It should've been forever
It should've been love
But I messed it all up

It should've been you
It should've been forever
We could've had it all
But we let it all go

It should've been you
It should've been forever
It should've been love
But I messed it all up

It should've been you
It should've been forever
It should've been love
I messed it all up
I messed it all up

They say losing the one you love
Teaches you to be stronger
But I don't really know if that's true

They say absence makes
The heart grow fonder
Of that at least I am sure

'Cause it should've been you
It should've been forever
It should've been love
But I messed it all up

It should've been you
It should've been forever
We should've had it all
But we let it all go

It should've been you
It should've been forever
It should've been love
But I messed it all up

It should've been you
It should've been forever
It should've been love
We should've had it all
But I let you go
I let you go

Now I dream awake
Tossing, turning
This I cannot take

I think of you
I think of our dreams
And how I let you down

'Cause it should've been you
It should've been forever
It should've been love
But I messed it all up

It should've been you
It should've been forever
I should've had it all
But we let it all go

It should've been you
It should've been forever
It should've held you closer
But I messed it all up

It should've been you
It should've been love
Oh, you know when you've lost something true
It should've been you
