It Should Have Been Me Lyrics - Headed For The Future - Neil Diamond

I think of you now and then 

'Cause I remember when 

Love was new and you were mine 

My love 

So why should we pretend 

We were lovers but now we're friends 

Don't want to say good-bye to you again 

My love 

It should have been me 

That's holding you instead of someone else 

I needed you but never let it show 

It should have been me 

That's loving you 

Through all the lonely nights 

I knew that I should have never let you go 

My love

What we once had is gone 

No tears, no right, no wrong 

We could never be the same again 

My love 

The more we see the less we know 

You still believe our love could grow 

Don't want to say good-bye to you again 

My love 

It should have been me 

That's holding you instead of someone else 

I needed you but never let it show 

It should have been me 

That's loving you 

Through all the lonely nights 

I knew that I should have never let you go 

My love 

How will I survive 

With another broken heart 

On my own again 

Just a lonely man 

Looking for a place to start 

It should have been me 

That's holding you instead of someone else 

I needed you but never let it show 

It should have been me 

That's loving you 

Through all the lonely nights 

I knew that I should have never let you go 

My love 

My love
