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’re friends
   I don’t want to say goodbye to you
   Again, my love
  
   (Chorus)
   It should have been me
   That’s lovin’ you instead of someone else
   I needed you but how was I to know
   It should have been me
   That’s holding you through all the lonely nights
   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’t want to say goodbye to you again,
   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)
