Dr. Dolittle 2 movie - If I Was The One lyrics

rate me

Song by Luther Vandross<br /><br>

I see the way he treats you<br>

I feel the tears you cry<br>

And it makes me sad and it makes me mad<br>

There's nothin' I can do, baby<br>

Cuz your lover is my best friend<br>

And I guess that's where the story ends<br>

So I've gotta try to keep it inside<br>

You'll never be, never be mine<br>

<br>

1 - But if I was the one who was loving you, baby<br>

The only tears you'd cry would be tears of joy<br>

And if I was by your side<br>

You'd never know one lonely night<br>

<br>

If it was my arms you were running to<br>

I'd give you love in these arms of mine<br>

If I was the one in your life<br>

<br>

If I could have just one wish<br>

I'd wish that you were mine<br>

I would hold you near, kiss away those tears<br>

I'd be so good to you, baby<br>

You're the one I want next to me<br>

But I guess that's just not meant to be<br>

He's there in your life, he's sharing your nights<br>

I'll never be, never be, never be right<br>

<br>

Repeat 1<br>

<br>

I want to reach out and feel you beside me, beside me<br>

Right here, right now, right beside me baby, baby<br>

And take you in my arms right now<br>

And scream I love you right out loud<br>

And then someday I'll pray I'll find<br>

I'll find the strength to turn to you and say<br>

<br>

Repeat 1<br>

<br>

If I was the one, if I was the one, the one <br>

If I was the one in your life<br>

<br>
