about

What happens when you lose the love of your life? A love song on giving love another look, another chance, at another time, Njel de Mesa’s Shoulda Been Us is the perfect soundtrack to all our relationship hang-ups. Featuring the crystal-clear stellar voice of 2008 WCOPA World Champion singer- Kath Loria, this radio single fuses the sensibilities of Lady Antebellum with chillout R&B.

lyrics

SOME PICTURES
DON'T FADE AWAY
LIKE FEELINGS
THAT HAD TO STAY FOR GOOD
LIKE YOU WOULD
YOU SAID
ONE DAY WE'LL MEET AGAIN
WELL, HERE I AM STARING AT
"AGAIN"
WHERE YOU STOOD

Refrain
AND I WANNA SAY
I'VE WAITED
FOR THIS DAY TO COME
AND I WANNA SAY
I'VE ALWAYS KNOWN
YOU'D BE THE ONE
WITH TEARS ROLLIN' DOWN
HOLD MY HAND
AND I'LL TELL YOU

Chorus
SHOULDA BEEN US
SHOULDA BEEN YOU
SHOULDA BEEN ME & YOU
SHOULDA BEEN US
SHOULDA BEEN ME
SHOULDA BEEN YOU & ME
'COS WE WERE
JUST MEANT TO BE
SHOULDA BEEN US
US

WE STARED AND SMILED
FOR QUITE A WHILE
EXCHANGING "HI"s
WHILE WONDERIN' WHY
WE LIED
LIKE WE WOULD
YOU SAID
YOU'RE FINE
I SAID
I'M FINE
I SAID SO
'COS YOU SAID
YOU'RE FINE
I LIED
IT'S NO GOOD

'COS I WANNA SAY
I'VE WAITED
FOR THIS DAY TO COME
AND I WANNA SAY
I'VE ALWAYS KNOWN
YOU'D BE THE ONE
WITH TEARS ROLLIN' DOWN
HOLD MY HAND
AND I'LL TELL YOU

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
NOW I SEE
AND YOU SEE
THAT WE WERE MEANT TO BE
YOU'RE HERE NOW
I'M HERE NOW
NO LONGER YOU AND ME
