You were standin' at my front door
When I came home tonight
And I could tell by the look you gave me

You were needin' my advice
You say you want more out of life than he can give you
As a tear rolls down your face

But girl, I've seen the way he looks at you
And I know someone who'd gladly take your place


[Chorus:]
If I were you
I'd run back home tonight

Tell him everything's all right
Yeah, I know what I'd do
If I were you

I'd never let him go
I'd have someone to hold
My whole life through


If I were you


You shouldn't think you're missin' out on something
Because you wear a wedding band
'Cause I can't seem to find somebody

Who wants more than just a one night stand
You know this single life I'm livin'
Ain't all it's cracked up to be

So you've come to the wrong place
If what you want is sympathy


[Repeat Chorus]
[Repeat Chorus Again]


If I were you
