Walking 'round with my head down

But I can't hide with

these high heels on

Downtown in a thick crowd

But it's just you

that my mind is on

Dressed up got my heart messed up

You got yours and I got mine

It's unfair that I still care

and I wonder where you are tonight

Thinking it could be different

But maybe we missed it yeah

Thinking it could be different

It could it could

It should've been us

Should've been a fire

Should've been the perfect storm

It should've been us

Could've been the real thing

Now we'll never know for sure ooh

We were crazy but amazing

baby we both know

It should've been us us

It it it should've been us

Back and forth like a tug of war

What's it all for

do I want it back

I still got a little flame for ya

Even though you drove me mad

Now and then I pretend

That it's you

when I close my eyes

You got yours

I got mine

But I wonder

where you are tonight

It should've been us

Should've been a fire

Should've been the perfect storm

It should've been us

Could've been the real thing

Now we'll never know for sure ooh

We were crazy but amazing

baby we both know

It should've been us us

It it it should've been us

Oh oh oh oh

It should've been us yeah

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh

It should've been us

It it it should've been us

Rap: You ain't never know the couple

that we could've been

Always talking about the man

that I should've been

No complaints

when I always hit the waterbed

And that where ya

at like it's all good again

The girls you had you're with

they're really not your friends

They can officially be a problem

ain't no got a man

Playing nice you know

you tell a lie all by yourself

Say you're happy

and you really lying to yourself

It should've been us

Should've been a fire

Should've been the perfect storm

It should've been us

Could've been the real thing

Now we'll never know for sure ooh

We were crazy but amazing

baby we both know

It should've been us us

It it it should've been us

Oh oh oh oh

It should've been us yeah

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh

It should've been us

It it it should've been us

Oh oh oh oh

It should've been us

Oh oh oh oh

It know we should've been us

It know we should've been us

It it it should've been us
