Me beside you

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
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
