Neil Diamond - It Should Have Been Me Lyrics
I think of you now and then
'Cause I remember when
Love was new and you were mine
My love
We were lovers but now we're friends
Don't want to say good-bye to you again
My love
It should have been me
That's holding you instead of someone else
I needed you but never let it show
It should have been me
That's loving you
Through all the lonely nights
My love
What we once had is gone
No tears, no right, no wrong
We could never be the same again
My love
The more we see the less we know
You still believe our love could grow
Don't want to say good-bye to you again
My love
It should have been me
That's holding you instead of someone else
I needed you but never let it show
It should have been me
That's loving you
Through all the lonely nights
I knew that I should have never let you go
My love
How will I survive
With another broken heart
On my own again
Just a lonely man
Looking for a place to start
It should have been me
That's holding you instead of someone else
I needed you but never let it show
It should have been me
That's loving you
Through all the lonely nights
I knew that I should have never let you go
My love
My love

Neil Diamond It Should Have Been Me Comments
Love. This song !
this song is an EVERLOVIN CLASSIC
Wonderfully blessed rock balad.
hello again Niel singer of all times Solomon
LISTEN TOO THIS 2016 !!!
TIMELESS !!! THE VOICE THE SOUND , LYRICS , NEIL AND BRYAN !!!
Now listen to Carly Simon's cover of this song and then imagine Diamond and Simon as duet on the song!
been looking for this song since 1985 had it on tape. good to hear it again, loved it then and love it now.
Both are GOOD!
then by all means listen to it and don't post this stuff here. is that to much to ask?
Excellent.....
nice, but I prefer the one from Carly Simon
Great song!
Michael Landau and Dann Huff both supposedly played
on this recording. Jason Scheff from Chicago (18 on)
played the bass.
I wasn't crazy about the bass guitar on this song, but
perhaps he was playing want they wanted. I thought
someone like Neil Stubenhaus would have mixed it up
more.
One of the vast number of 'good' songs overlooked during ND's awkward period of 'big overproduced 10,000pc orchestra albums. Great lyrics, excellent guitar!
I've always loved this song. Speaking of which, "It Should Have..." had a place on the charts.
Wow! Thanks for posting this!
I have been looking for this for awhile now. Thanks for posting. This song is so great !
The tormented vocals and the angry guitar! with a bass guitar urging the anger on.
Fabulous!
