Could've been me beside you, baby Could've been me beside you But I wasn't smart Isn't it kind of funny, baby Isn't it kind of funny, Two of us apart Sayin' it's kind of funny, baby But it's the kind of funny That can break your heart All through the night I can see you All through the night I call your name Close my eyes and I see you coming back to me Wonder, could it be that way again And I lie awake And think of what we could have been While you're lying there with him Could've been me beside you, baby Could've been me beside you I should be that guy Sayin' it's kind of funny But it's the kind of funny That can make you cry All through the night I can see you All through the night I call your name Close my eyes and I see you coming back to me But I know that it's only in my head 'Cause I lie awake And think of what I should have said And you're there with him instead Should've been me beside you, baby Should've been me beside you I should be that guy Never had time to take you dancin' Never had time for dancin' And I don't know why Isn't it time we got together Isn't it time we try it Back to you and I Could've been me beside you, baby Could've been me beside you I should be that guy Could've been me beside you, baby Could've been me beside you
