Lyrics of He should be you

He doesn't taste like you, he doesn't touch like you
No, i know he can't replace what never, never went away
There is no substitute for what i shared with you
No, i know it's not the same when he, when he calls my name

Does he know that when he's looking in my eyes
I'm thinking in the back of my mind

He should be you, how can it be
That the man i wanna love is not the man who's loving me
It should be you, it should be me
Don't want to hurt him but it's true, he should be, he should be you

Thought i was over you, thought i had spent enough
Time alone living, living on my own
I guess i fooled myself by thinking i could tell
A broken heart when it should start

Do you know how hard i've tried to let him in
Kept thinking that in time there'd be a spark

He should be you, how can it be
That the man i wanna love is not the man who's loving me
It should be you, it should be me
Don't want to hurt him but it's true, he should be, he should be you

How do i let him know, how do i let him go?
What'll i say to him to explain?
It's not that i don't care, it's just that it's not fair
That when i look at him i feel this way

He should be you, how can it be
That the man i wanna love is not the man who's loving me
It should be you, it should be me
Don't want to hurt him but it's true, he should be

He should be you, how can it be
That the man i wanna love is not the man who's loving me
It should be you, it should be me
Don't want to hurt him but it's true, he should be, he should be you

He should, how can it be
He's not loving me
It should, it should be you

He should be you, how can it be
That the man i wanna love is not the man who's loving me
It should be you, it should be me
Don't want to hurt him but it's true, he should be you
