If I Could Be You Lyrics - The Long Way Home - Terri Clark

The first time we met I swore I hated you 

When all you had to do was walk into the room 

You got everyone's attention just by bein you 

Something I could never do 

But always wanted to 

You were beautiful, you had it all 

Never bought yourself a drink 

And sittin there just watchin you 

I couldn't help but think 

If I could be you 

I'd take your place 

For an hour, for a day 

I could do anything I wanted to 

If I could have your perfect life 

In a second I'd trade mine 

There's nothin in this world I wouldn't do 

If I could be you

Standin in line after too much wine in the ladies room 

We started talkin bout the things men do 

Yeah we'd been in each others shoes 

Now it's ten years later and we've shared everything 

Tears, clothes & dreams 

I helped you pick your wedding ring 

I remember when I held your hand the day the baby came 

How that whole first year you'd call in tears 

So worn out you would say 

If I could be you 

I'd take your place 

For an hour for a day 

I'd do the kind of things that I used to 

What I wouldn't give sometimes 

For a second that's just mine 

On days like this there's nothin I wouldn't do 

If I could be you 

Photos 

Well time flies by and how things change 

Sittin in this room today 

There's not much either one of us can say 

The doctors have done all they can 

I'm holding your hand again 

Wishin I could take it all away 

If I could be you 

I'd take your place 

For an hour for a day 

And I'd gladly bear the pain you're goin through 

To give you back your perfect life 

In a second I'd trade mine 

There's nothin in this world I wouldn't do 

Girl there's nothin in this world I wouldn't do 

If I could be you
