Lyrics Shoudda Been There - Original Mix - Dean Coleman feat. Janis Leahy

I should've been there, but i was gone
I should've been there, I was so wrong ...
I should've been there, I was so wrong ...

See that reflection of me next to you
Guess it was all I thought you needed
I was wrong, believing all along
I was wrong, i was so wrong

Why is it life that took me there?
I don't understand how I let you go
Why didn't life just keep me near?
Now that you're gone, I feel so alone

I should've been there, but I left you
I should've been there, didn't forget you
Wish we could go back to a better place
Wish I could feel your arms around me
What I wouldn't give to see your smiling face
The times when I could not live without you

I see the pictures of me and you
I'm seeing now why you were so blue
To see that now makes me cold, frozen cold and alone

Why is it life that took me there?
I don't understand how I let you go
Why didn't life just keep me near?
Now that you're gone, I feel so alone

Why
Why
Why
Why is it life that takes me there?
Why is it life?
