Lyrics If I Were You - Boy George

If I Were You

The chance to live your life
The chance to live your life
You live your life in desperation
I tried but could not break your will
Regret and endless conversation
It hurts to see you standing still
But if you had the chance to live your life again
Would you squander your beauty and intelligence
Take a look in the mirror now 'cause every word is true
I’d be afraid if I were you
If I were you
You pass the blame to those around you
Look in the mirror, face the truth
I tried to help, I tried to ground you
You had such beauty in your youth
But if you had the chance to live your life again
Would you squander your beauty and intelligence
Take a look in the mirror now 'cause every word is true
I’d be afraid if I were you
But if you had the chance to live your life again
Would you squander your beauty and intelligence
Take a look in the mirror now 'cause every word is true
I’d be afraid if I were you
If I were you
