There goes the girl in the arms of someone new
Night after night I can see the life she's stumblin' 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 sharin' 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 mineSometimes she smiles when I see her passin' by
Sometimes she waves when she turns and whispers, "Hi" again
And I see the pain of the life she lives, yet I'm hopin' for a sign'Cause she should'a been mine, she could'a been mine
We would'a been sharin' 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
