You should've been gone Knowing how I made you feel And I should've been gone After all your words of steel Oh I must've been a dreamer And I must've been someone else And we should've been over Oh Sherry, our love Holds on, holds on Oh Sherry, our love Holds on, holds on But I want to let go You'll go on hurtin' me You'd be better off alone If I'm not who you thought I'd be But you know that there's a fever Oh that you'll never find nowhere else Can't you feel it burnin' on and on (chorus) But I should've been gone Long ago, far away And you should've been gone Now I know just why you stay (chorus) Oh Sherry, our love Holds on, holds on
