If I Were You

If I were you
I wouldn't hurt the ones you love the way you do
I wouldn't make them cry
If I were you
I would learn to see the other point of view
You don't even try

(If I were you)
Let's say that you were me
We'd do things differently
Cut out all the fear and lies
(If I were you)
Then maybe you could see
The possibility to compromise

If I were you
I would look at all the quarrelling we do
'Cause that's no help at all
If I were you
I would give a little credit where it's due
That would be my call

(If I were you)
Let's say that you were me
We'd do things differently
And cut out all the hurt and pain
(If I were you)
Then maybe you could see
The possibility to love again

If I had the choice
You would make yourself heard
Without raising your voice
In my master plan
You could get your own way
Without raising your hand

(If I were you)

I don't want to be the one
Getting it wrong time after time
I no longer want to play games
For any reason or rhyme
Nobody's asking you to do something
You don't want to do

If I were you
I wouldn't hurt the ones you love the way you do
I wouldn't make them cry

If I were you
I would learn to see the other point of view
But you don't even try

If I were you
If I were you
(If I were you)
If I were you
If I were you
