If I Could Be Him Lyrics - Swinging Doors And The Bottle Let Me Down - Merle Haggard

IF I COULD BE HIM 

(Merle Haggard) 

'65 Tree Publishing, BMI 

We're all friends you and I me and him 

And it's wrong to want you like I do 

And no way can wrong be right but I'd give the world tonight 

If I could just be him holding you 

I know that you could never trade his love for mine 

And I know my dreams can never be 

Cause no way can wrong be right but I'd give the world tonight 

If I could just be him instead of me 

I can see everything in you I ever dreamed of 

But someone I call my friend stands in the way 

I'd give everything I own for one hour with you alone 

Or if I could just be him for just one day 

I can see everything in you...
