Lyrics It Should Have Been Me - Yvonne Fair

It Should Have Been Me

I saw my love walking down the aisle
And as he passed me by He turned to me and gave me a smile
Then the preacher, then the preacher
The preacher joined their hands
And all the people, the people began to stand
When I shouted
«You know that it should have been me»
Instead of her walking with you
You know that it should have been me, oh baby
Gettin' ready to marry you, darlin', darlin', darlin'
You made a promise that we would never part
Then you turned around and you broke my little heart
Now you’re standing there saying, «I do»
Holding hands with somebody new
You know that it should have been me Instead of her standing by you
It should have been me Gettin' ready to say, «I do»
Then the preacher, oh yeah
The preacher asked that there be silence, please
If any objections to this wedding
Speak now or forever or forever hold your peace
Then I shouted, «It should have been me»
You know that it should have been me You know that it should have been me Baby, how could you do this to me?
Darlin', darlin', darlin'
It should have been me Don’t you know that it should have been me?
You know that it should have been me It should have been me
I’ve been faithful to you, baby, baby, baby
It should have been me How could you do this to me?
You know that it should have been me
