F
When I saw you with her I
Am
couldn't bear it yet I wonder why

As I lay here next to him

the way you held her hand and kissed her face
Bb
made me miss the times we did the same
Am Bb C
but doesn't matter, will never matter what I say
F
that could have been me
this would have been you
Dm
how could a love so deep slip through
Gm
the cracks in our hearts will remain
Dm Bb C
like the tears that are stained black and blue
F
that should be me
I wish it were you
Dm
but now theres nothing we can do
Gm Dm
we had to give up, love just wasn't enough
Bb C
If I had to tell the truth
F
I wish it were you

I've tried to forget the day
Bb
when we first laid eyes on each other

never felt that way for another

its not like you were superman
Am
but your power over me was all I had

I tell myself to stop and breathe or else
these thoughts take over me

Sometimes I wish we had a chance

just one more kiss or one more dance
