That Should Be Me

Yeah… I see you… but you don’t see me, do you?"
Damn…
Everybody’s laughing, but I don’t get the joke
They’re all whispering, saying you’ve moved on
Oh no-o-o-no
Tell me, do you hold his hand like you did with me
Do you kiss him slow like it’s meant to be

I see you in my dreams, but you’re gone when I wake
Your name still burns like a scar I can’t erase

That should be me, pulling you close
That should be me, stealing your ghost
That should be me, damn, it’s so wrong
That should be me all along

That should be me, late-night calls
That should be me, catching your falls
Tell me it's real, tell me you see
That should be me, yeah, that should be me

Yeah... ohh…

You said you needed space, so I gave you the stars
Didn’t know he was waiting right there in the dark
Are you telling him the secrets we swore to keep?
Does he know you cry in your sleep?

I see you in my dreams, but you’re gone when I wake
Your touch still lingers, I can’t get away

That should be me, pulling you close
That should be me, stealing your ghost
That should be me, damn, it’s so wrong
That should be me all along

That should be me, late-night calls
That should be me, catching your falls
Tell me it's real, tell me you see
That should be me, yeah, that should be me

Do I fight or just let go?
Do I run or take it slow?
Baby, tell me—was it ever real?
Do you feel the way I feel?

Tell me the truth… does he love you like I do?

Never shoulda let you go
Never shoulda let you go
That should be me, yeah, that should be me

Never shoulda let you go
But you’re gone
