Could Have Been You - Joss Stone

Well it’s a shame

We used to be so tight

Tell me what’s your game

Since you left me outside

I’m gonna change my track

Go anywhere but back

Ooh, when I think about it

I’m better off without it

There’s no gain

Only pain

My heart can’t take the strain

I can’t sit

On the shelf

I’ll give my love to someone else

If you see me walking by

Hand-in-hand with another guy

Know that it’s true

It could have been you

If you’d only treated me right

Out of sight, baby out of mind

That’s what you do

It could have been you

Don’t wanna wait

For what you promised me

Like a train: delayed

Forever so it seems

I’m gonna change my track

Go anywhere but back

Ooh, when I think about it

I’m better off without it

There’s no gain

Only pain

My heart can’t take the strain

I can’t sit

On the shelf

I’ll give my love to someone else

If you see me walking by

Hand-in-hand with another guy

Know that it’s true

It could have been you

If you’d only treated me right

Out of sight, baby out of mind

That’s what you do

It could have been you

You could have been

My first, my last, forever

You held it in your hands

My heart, my treasure

The proof is in the memories

So sad to know that’s all that’s left for you is

What could have been.

If you see me walking by

Hand-in-hand with another guy

Know that it’s true

It could have been you

If you’d only treated me right

Out of sight, baby out of mind

That’s what you do

It could have been you

(It could’ve been

Some say

It should’ve been

You

Forget you baby)
