Lyrics
If were you
If I were in your position
I'd drop it all and I'd throw on my shoes
I would abandon everything and get ready quickly
Tear down the road like I had everything to lose
I would drive recklessly as if I had nothing to lose
Cuz you got everything to lose
Because you have a lot at stake
If I were you
If I were in your shoes
There'd be no second thought on what I'd say
I wouldn't hesitate in expressing what I feel
Do Anything to make goodbye go away
I would do anything to eliminate the pain of saying goodbye
Make you wanna stay
I would make you want to stay
Show me things are really gonna change
Show me that things are genuinely going to change
Cuz if you were me
Because if you were in my position
Boy you'd see
You would understand
Every bruise and every scar
The visible wounds and emotional hurts
The million cracks across my heart
The numerous emotional scars on my heart
You'd read my mind and see we're running out of time
You would perceive my thoughts and realize time is running out
That I'm so close to letting go
That I am on the verge of giving up
If you were me then you would know
If you were in my shoes, you would know
Exactly what I'd do
Exactly what actions I would take
If I were you
If I were in your position
I wouldn't let me take that suitcase down
I wouldn't allow myself to unpack that suitcase
Open those drawers and turn them inside out
I wouldn't expose my vulnerabilities by turning everything inside out
Like I'm doing now
Similar to what I am doing now
Cuz if you were me
Because if you were in my position
Boy you'd see
You would comprehend
Every bruise and every scar
The visible wounds and emotional hurts
The million cracks across my heart
The numerous emotional scars on my heart
You'd read my mind and see we're running out of time
You would perceive my thoughts and realize time is running out
That I'm so close to letting go
That I am on the verge of giving up
If you were me then you would know
If you were in my shoes, you would know
Exactly what I'd do
Exactly what actions I would take
So give me the love that you've been holding back
So, provide me with the love you've been withholding
Hold me tighter than you ever have
Hug me more tightly than you ever have
Cuz if you were me
Because if you were in my position
Boy you'd see
You would comprehend
Every bruise and every scar
The visible wounds and emotional hurts
The million cracks across my heart
The numerous emotional scars on my heart
You'd read my mind and see we're running out of time
You would perceive my thoughts and realize time is running out
That I'm so close to letting go
That I am on the verge of giving up
If you were me then you would know
If you were in my shoes, you would know
But hey, that's just what I'd do
But hey, that's precisely what I would do
If I were you
If I were in your position
If I were you
