Terri Clark - If I Could Be You lyrics
Your rating:
The first time we met I swore I hated you When all you had to do was walk into the room You got everyone's attention just by being you Something I could never do but always wanted to You were beautiful, you had it all Never bought yourself a drink And sitting there just watching you I couldn't help but think If I could be you I'd take your place For an hour, for a day I'd do anything I wanted to If I could have your perfect life In a second I'd trade mine There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do If I could be you After too much wine standing in the line in the ladies room We started talking 'bout the things men do Yeah, we'd been in each others shoes Now it's ten years later and we've shared everything Tears, clothes and dreams I helped you pick your wedding ring I remember when I held your hand the day the baby came How that whole first year you'd call in tears So worn out you would say If I could be you I'd take your place For an hour, for a day I'd do the kind of things that I used to What I wouldn't give sometimes For a second that's just mine On days like this there's nothing I wouldn't do If I could be you Well, time flies by and how things change Sitting in this room today There's not much either one of us can say The doctors have done all they can I'm holding your hand again Wishing I could take it all away If I could be you I'd take your place For an hour, for a day And I'd gladly bear the pain you're going through To give you back your perfect life In a second I'd trade mine There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do Girl, there's nothing in this world I wouldn't do If I could be you
