she should a been mine

Barry Manilow

There goes the girl in the arms of someone new
night after night I can see the life
she's stumbing through
and I know that she'll never notice me
but I still look for a sign

'cause she should'a been mine
she could'a been mine
we would'a been sharing love until the end of
time
I should'a known how
we would'a been close to paradise by now
if it could'a been
it would'a been
still she should'a been mine

sometimes she smiles when I see her passing by
sometime she waves
when she turns and whispers "hi", again
and I see the pain of the life she lives
yet I'm hoping for a sign

'cause she should'a been mine
she could'a been mine
we would'a been sharing love until the end of
time
I should'a known how
we would'a been close to paradise by now
if it could'a been
it would'a been
still she should'a been mine

I'm the one that she's been lookin' for
we would have been so find
if it could'a been
it would'a been
