Lover You Should've Come Over is track #7 on Jeff Buckley's album Grace. It is believed to be a song about a true breakdown in a relationship with someone Buckley was with at the time.

This is believed to be one of his most powerful and diverse efforts, with a jazzy, soulful and gospel-like tone to the song. In fact, during the song's climax ("It's Never Over,..."), you can hear gospel-like backing vocals, which in reality are actually Jeff multi-tracking his own voice.

The song was covered by the English Pop-pianist songwriter Jamie Cullum on his 2003 Album Twentysomething
