TAMIA LYRICS - If I Were You

"If I Were You"



I look in the mirror, with you in my arms

And I see a reflection

Of a smile that says you believe in love

And just for a moment, I drifted away

But I couldn't stay cuz

A hint of love, a bit of fear

I'm tryin' to say



If I were you, I wouldn't be here

If I were you I would stay right where you are

I wouldn't come near this broken heart

Just turn around and leave here

And find someone who won't hurt you

Make sure that she still believes in love

Cuz I think my heart has given up

If I were you, I wouldn't be here

Ooh yeah



I'm tryin' to protect you

From the lies that your heart tells

Even though it says that you love me

All I see is pain and misery

Seasons may change

But I can't forget the days of old

My heart ached when you walked away

I said I'd never love again



If I were you, I wouldn't be here

If I were you I would stay right where you are

I wouldn't come near this broken heart

Just turn around and leave here

And find someone who won't hurt you

Make sure that she still believes in love

Cuz I think my heart has given up

If I were you, I wouldn't be here



The days go by

And I feel that you could make me happy

Time goes on

And I feel that love is at my door

And though I tell myself that you're the one

Who said those words before

Thought it hurts too much

I can't trust in love

Again

Again



If I were you, I wouldn't be here

If I were you I would stay right where you are

I wouldn't come near this broken heart

Just turn around and leave here

And find someone who won't hurt you

Make sure that she still believes in love

Cuz my heart has given up



If I were you, I wouldn't be here

If I were you I would stay right where you are

I wouldn't come near this broken heart

Just turn around and leave here

And find someone who won't hurt you

Make sure that she still believes in love



If I were you, I wouldn't be here

If I were you I would stay right where you are

I wouldn't come near this broken heart

Just turn around and leave here

And find someone who won't hurt you

Make sure that she still believes in love

My heart has given up

Can't be here



If I were you, I wouldn't be here

If I were you I would stay right where you are

Cuz my heart has given up

If I were you, I wouldn't be here

Ooh

I wouldn't, if I were you

I wouldn't be here

Oh oh oh
