Lyrics
There she goes with a smile on her face

Riding 'round after you

Going out to all those places

You used to take me to

Wearing your jacket like it was her own

I used to wear it so well

Why on earth did I let you go

If I hadn't I'd be with you still

Call it jealousy, call me a fool

But it's more than my eyes wanna see

And it should've been me

With you tonight

And it should've been me

There by your side

Seeing you both it's hard to believe

But it should've been me

Flashing that ring in everyone's face

The one I gave back last week

I wonder if your telling her things

You used to whisper to me

Saying sorry don't work anymore

'Cause it's more than my heart wants to feel

And it should've been me

With you tonight

And should've been me

There by your side

Seeing you both it's hard to believe

'Cause it should've been me

She looked so satisfied

So close to you that I

Can't help but wonder why

I said goodbye and I

Have tears upon my eyes

Look at her...

Call it jealousy, call me a fool

But it's more than my eyes want to see

And it should've been me

With you tonight

And it should've been me

There by your side

Seeing you both, it's hard to believe

'Cause it should've been me

Whoa, it should've been me

With you tonight

And it should've been me

There by your side

Seeing you both, it's hard to believe

'Cause it should've been me

Get back, Jo-Jo
