Ne-Yo – Should Be You Lyrics (Feat. Fabolous & Diddy)

[Fabolous:]
You know things don’t ever go as they should, right? (oh oh no, oh oh no)
Don’t you hate a coulda, woulda, shoulda nigga? (oh oh no, oh oh no)
Could’ve did, would’ve did, well, you should’ve nigga, (oh oh no, oh oh no)

If I had a dollar for every ‘should be,’ you know how rich I would be?
Like they say, it is what it is, now what it could be?
Can’t cry, feel guilt over spilled milk,
I’m too fly, I’m too cool, word to Versace silk,
And my watch be filled with mad diamonds,
I got good watches, just bad timing,
The chick I met at the club was cute,
Still feel like I’m gettin’ brain from the substitute,
‘Cause this ain’t you, and I ain’t me,
Claim you happy then why you so mad at me?
Can’t hold onto what you had, just what you got,
You should be here, but you’re not.

[Chorus – Ne-Yo:]
I’m doing it again, what I told myself I would not do, oh
It’s 4:15AM, I’m sitting here drinkin’, reminiscin’ over you, oh
And how I used to let you smoke even though I don’t,
You get blowed then we both get low,
As I lay here with some girl I don’t know,
In the back of my mind, one million times,
I tell myself it should be you, should be you,
Should be you and me right now,
Said it should be you, should be you,
Should be you, should be you and me right now ohh.
Should be you, ahh.

As I watch her sleep, all that I can think,
She’s beautiful, but she’s not you,
Love her just tonight, then out of my life
Damn why can’t I do this right?
When you told me you wanted to leave,
I pretended it didn’t hurt me,
But as I lay here, I can hardly breathe,
Laying next to she, when in reality, it should be…

[Chorus – Ne-Yo:]
It should be you, oh, should be you, should be you
should be you and me, right now, right now
said it should be you, should be you,
should be you and me, right now aha
ooh ooh should be you, should be you baby ahh

Ooh, wish I knew then what I know now
And there was some way, somehow
Wish there was some way that I could go back,
It’s obvious and there’s no doubt,
Made a mistake and I’m down and out,
Ooh girl it should be…

[Diddy:]
Yo check this out,
My life, lights, cameras, fame, and action,
Feeling drained from all these private planes I’m catchin’
Willing to trade all the flashy chains I’m flashin’
For a night back of us, exchangin’ pain and passion,
Romances, kinda like the Phantom doors we used to ride,
‘Cause us tryin’ to open up is like suicide,
God teaches lessons every day,
You was all I needed like Meth and Mary J.
The sun don’t shine forever,
Any time that we fall, that just mean we just climb together,
Guess we avoided what we coulda went through,
That don’t change the fact that it should’ve been you.

Girl it should be you

[Chorus – Ne-Yo:]
It should be you, oh, should be you, should be you
should be you and me, right now, right now
said it should be you, should be you,
should be you and me, right now aha
uhh uhh, I said it should be you, it should be you baby ahh

Should be you, should be you, should be you oh
