Lyrics
Shoulda Been Us
We had a love so pure and innocent
Undefeated, against all odds
Then one day came that thing called life
Our paths were changin' without a cause
Now the years have passed, been wonderin'
The talk around the town's you're not real far
It wasn't long ago, you'd said to me
No matter what you're always in my heart
It shoulda been us, walkin' by the water
Yeah, you know its true
It shoulda been us, takin on the world, yeah just me and you
It shoulda been us, it shoulda been us it shoulda been us
Down by the train tracks, on the riverside
We'd sit and talk for hours in the hills
About our dreams, what a work of art
We'd never know the beauty that we built
It shoulda been us, walkin' by the water
Yeah, you know its true
It shoulda been us, takin on the world, yeah just me and you
It shoulda been us, it shoulda been us it shoulda been us
It's so strange to me, I lost all of of my dreams inside this whirlwind
It's so hard to see, through how it all is, to how it shoulda been
It shoulda been us, talkin' all night long stayin' oh so strong
I'm holdin' on.....
It shoulda been us, walkin' by the water
Yeah, you know its true
It shoulda been us, takin on the world, yeah just me and you
It shoulda been us, it shoulda been us it should have been us
