That Guy (Could Have Been Me) Songtext
von Lillo Thomas

Ooh woah
Woah, woah, babe, no
Darling why, darling why
Darling why

And you′re not even being cruel, it seemed the thing to do
Should have listened when you told me about my friend
(Told me that time about my friend)
'Cause I remembered telling him
Just how I played my game (so many times)
And all the time he was trying to take what′s mine

Baby now I'm changed
I'm a brand new man
It took time and it′s cost me your love
But listen


That guy could have been me, girl
That guy, who would believe
You would love that guy
(Should have been me) it should have been me, girl
That guy could have been me
Instead a friend of mine
A friend of mine
′Cause she's killing me

I remember little things
That showed how much you cared
The way you′d pick me up every time I'd fall
What a blind, foolish me
Oh, how could I not see
That all those other girls were just a waste of time?
Just a waste of time

Now I have changed
I′m a brand new man
It took time and it's cost me your love
But listen
That guy should have been me, girl
That guy could have been me
Instead a friend of mine

Now I′ve changed
And I'm a brand new man
It took time and time's cost me your love, girl
Oh, listen now


That guy should have been me
That guy, ooh who could believe
That you′d love that guy? (Should′ve been me)
I can't believe you love that guy
It should have been me

Want me, baby (should have been me)
Need me darling
But just don′t leave me girl, standing all alone
Oh woah, love me, baby (should have been me)
Oh need me, darling
But just don't leave me standing all alone (do not)

Together we′ll be, no other love, no, no, no (should have been me)
Like your love, baby
I need you darling
Keep me strong (you love that guy)

Could have been, would have been (could have been me)
It could have been, would have been me
I know I've done you wrong (you love that guy)
Bye, bye, baby, bye
′Cause I'm the one who cries
And I'm sorry, baby
Oh, I know I was wrong

Oh, just love me baby (should have been me)
Longer, longer, just a little longer
Who could believe
A woman just put me down
There′s a new kid in town
I don′t wanna hear it, no (should have been)
