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
