It Should Have Been You

It Should Have Been You - Dana Winner

In a dream of blind romance

We would never dare

We were tempted by the promise

Of a life we couldn't share

Here I'm standing sad and free

I can¹t cry and I can't see

What you have kept inside you

And what I refused to be

Now I won't believe in love

So I can¹t be hurt

Still I'm trying to hold on

Before it slips away

And those dreams can last so long

Even after you have gone

And heaven knows I¹m sinking

In this ocean of your eyes

It should have been you

Giving it all away

It could have been me

Making it through your day

Without pain

Of promises never made

I loved you before I met you

Now it's time to let it go

It should have been you

Giving it all away

It could have been me

Making it through your day

Without pain

Of promises never made

I loved you before I met you

Now it¹s time to let it go

To let you go

Sometimes I have got this feeling

That I don't belong

In a world without your presence

Where I need to be strong

Here I'm standing sad and free

I can¹t cry and I can't see

What you have kept inside you

And what I refused to be

We've been living in this darkness

With our hearts undone

And it's been a cold long winter

Now I'm praying for the sun

And those dreams can last so long

Even after you have gone

And heaven knows I'm sinking

In this ocean of your eyes

It should have been you

Giving it all away

It could have been me

Making it through your day

Without pain

Of promises never made

Cause I loved you before I met you

Now it's time to let it go

It should have been you

Giving it all away

Now I won't be me

I won't make it through your day

I just know I have to let you go

So I'll let you go

It should have been you
