If She Were You |
| Well, everytime I try to love another |
| I never know exactly what to do Id like to tell her just how much I want her |
| And I could find the way if she were you |
| Her eyes may shine for me and not another, |
| Her lonely arms reach out to hold me too, |
| She wants to take your place and be my lover |
| And I could make her mine if she were you |
| I never knew how much I cared about you |
| Till your memory made me a lovesick fool |
| When she speaks to me I hear you sweet voice calling |
| When I close my eyes your face comes into view |
| I remember how it hurt when I was falling |
| And I could fall again if she were you |
| I never knew how much I cared about you |
| Till your memory made me a lovesick fool |
| She wants to take your place and be my lover |
| And I could make her mine if she were you |
| Yes, I could make her mine if she was you |
