The One Project - If I Were You Lyrics

She said it's hot in here
I said I love you dear
But I know you, it's not what you want to hear
I said its cold outside
I might take a ride
And I'll see you around this time next year

But you can't hold me to my word
I've only given you what you've deserved
I've got a place to rest
I could have done with less
But it's foolish to think it'll ever work

Met a man from Tennessee
He asked my name and I could see
That he's lonely and not where he wants to be
Met a girl from down the road
She was his wife or so I'm told
But he's everything I could see was wrong with me

I couldn't tell you what I've heard
I only know the truth hurts, that I'm sure
And I couldn't even try to make you see
If I were you and you were me

Give my regards to my loving wife
I'm going to have to say goodbye
And I know I couldn't even make her see
If I were her and she was me

She said it's hot in here
I said I love you dear
But I know you, it's not what you want to hear
