If She Were You Lyrics by John Prine

If She Were You Lyrics

    Well, everytime i try to love another
    I never know exactly what to do
    I'd like to tell her just how much i want her
    And i could find the way if she were you

    Her eyes may shine for me and not another,
    Her lonely arms reach out to hold me too,
    She wants to take your place and be my lover
    And i could make her mine if she were you

    I never knew how much i cared about you
    Till your memory made me a lovesick fool

    When she speaks to me i hear you sweet voice calling
    When i close my eyes your face comes into view
    I remember how it hurt when i was falling
    And i could fall again if she were you

    I never knew how much i cared about you
    Till your memory made me a lovesick fool
    She wants to take your place and be my lover
    And i could make her mine if she were you
    Yes, i could make her mine if she was you
