Jake Banfield - If I Were You

If it were me
I wouldn't be the one to leave your side
If it were me
You wouldn't be crying all damn night
If it were me
I wouldn't waste your time like that other guy
Making my way to your house on a Friday night
Tell ya that I love you just to go and leave you dry
Leave you empty in the bed asking why
If I were you
I wouldn't throw my heart into empty fire
If I were you
I wouldn't trust a lie
Based on some endless desire
Well you know the truth
Well baby I do too
So why don't we make this right
If I were you
If I were you
If I were you
It would be me
You run around
Around this town
Getting high on him
Trying to drown me out
In the back of your mind
You know he's not that guy
He's just got you blind
He'll leave with you no doubt
If it were me
I wouldn't waste your time like that other guy
Making my way to your house on a Friday night
Tell ya that I love you just to go and leave you dry
Leave you empty in the bed asking why
If I were you
I wouldn't throw my heart into empty fire
If I were you
I wouldn't trust a lie
Based on some endless desire
Well you know the truth
Well baby I do too
So why don't we make this right
If I were you
If I were you
If I were you
It would be me
If I were you
I wouldn't throw my heart into empty fire
If I were you
I wouldn't trust a lie
Based on some endless desire
Well you know the truth
Well baby I do too
So why don't we make this right
If I were you
If I were you
If I were you
It would be me
