Oh Sherrie
Steve Perry Lyrics
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 (must've been a dreamer, oh)
And I must've been someone else (someone else)
And we should've been over (over by now)
Oh Sherrie, our love
Holds on, holds on
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
Oh Sherrie, our love
Holds on, holds on
Oh Sherrie, our love
Holds on, holds on
Oh Sherrie
But I should've been gone
Long ago, far away
And you should've been gone
Now I know just why you stay
Oh Sherrie, our love
Holds on, holds on
Oh Sherrie, our love
Holds on, holds on
Oh Sherrie, our love
Holds on, holds on
Hold on, oh Sherrie

Steve Perry is definitely amongst the greatest vocalists - the a cappella opening of this song is pure GOLD!

I agree with you 100%. When I see live performance of a group and the vocals are just as much as on point as their album It's amazing
