If I Were You |
| If I were you |
| I wouldn’t hurt the ones you love the way you do |
| I wouldn’t make them cry |
| If I were you |
| I would learn to see the other point of view |
| You don’t even try |
| Let’s say that you were me |
| We’d do things differently |
| Cut out all the fear and lies |
| Then maybe you could see |
| The possibility to compromise |
| If I were you |
| I would look at all the quarreling we do |
| Cause that’s no help at all |
| If I were you |
| I would give a little credit where it’s due |
| That would be my call |
| Let’s say that you were me |
| We’d do things differently |
| And cut out all the hurt and pain |
| Then maybe you could see |
| The possibility to love again |
| If I had the choice |
| You would make yourself heard |
| Without raising your voice |
| In my master plan |
| You could get your own way |
| Without raising your hand |
| I don’t want to be the one |
| Getting it wrong time after time |
| I no longer want to play games |
| For any reason or rhyme |
| Nobody’s asking you to do something |
| You don’t want to do |
| If I were you |
| I wouldn’t hurt the ones you love the way you do |
| I wouldn’t make them cry |
| If I were you |
| I would learn to see the other point of view |
| But you don’t even try |
| If I were you |
