The Blue Shadows - If I Were You lyrics

rate me

(Billy Cowsill/Jeffrey Hatcher)

If I were you

Well I would turn my head

And hear this word I said to you

Not something else instead

And if you hear

What you should have heard

And if you know that every single word

Was ringing true

If I were you

If I were you

Believe me I will try

To see a different point of view

Like looking eye to eye

You see this laying here thinking I'm fine

And wondering why without even trying

Did he seem so cruel

If I were you

If you were me

Then maybe you'd see

What fools we can be

When only one side we'll see

Now tell it to me true

Now don't it tell on you

She see me standing there thinking it's fine

And wonders why without even trying

Could he seem so cruel

If you were me

Would you gaze into the mirror

The truth is looking back at you

Or do you think it's rude to stare

Cuz what you see is what you finally get

It looks to me, I haven't seen it as yet

But one day if you would see as I do

Then you'd feel the fool

If I were you

If I were you

If I were you

If I were you

If I were you
