If I Were You

(S. Peiken, A. Roman) She can feel you Drifting far away But she can't see through What you do not say Take a step back Don't lose your ground Remember how you felt before And if you care about her Show her that you're sure If I were you My prized possessions Would be the ones I'd hold so close 'Cause when you lose your love You lose what means the most If I were you I'd hold affection Higher than any star in sight Take this to heart And you'll never part These are the things that I would do If I were you Simple pleasures The hardest to be found Can't be measured 'Till they're not around Maybe she'll go Maybe she'll stay But she'd rather go than fade away Sometimes the sweetest sorrow Is the saddest fate (Chorus) Take a step back Don't lose your ground Remember how you felt before And if you care about her Show her that you're sure If I were you I'd hold affection Higher than any star in sight Take this to heart And you'll never part These are the things that I would do If I were you Take this to heart You'll never part These are the things that I would do If I were you
