Carly Simon - It Should Have Been Me lyrics

(bryan adams/jim vallance) I think of you now and then But i remember when love was new And you were mine, my love So why would we pretend We were lovers and now we I don Again, my love (chorus) It should have been me That I needed you but how was i to know It should have been me That I knew that i should never let you go, My love What we once had is gone No tears, no right, no wrong It could never be the same again, my love The more we see the less we know Now you believe our love will grow I don My love (chorus) My love, how would i survive With another broken heart On my own again When i need a friend To help me find a place to start (chorus)
