It's no good to lose heart it's no good to lose sight

It's no good to have nowhere to go that feels right

You can trust me on that one you sure shouldn't try it

You sure shouldn't let yourself get right inside it



If I could be you I'd be happy with that

My regrets would be few and my future not black

Yeah I could be happy with that



It's no good to get numb it's no good to get tight

It's no good to wake up and then find you're alright

No you don't get off easy well you can't escape it

You wouldn't believe just how long you can take it



If I could be you I'd be happy with that...



Sometimes life can be hard when you give love and no one will take it

[ steel - fiddle ]

If I could be you I'd be happy with that

My regrets would be few and my future not black

For a minute or two walk in some other shoes

Yeah I could be happy with that
