If It Were Me Lyrics

The prettiest girl I'm watching turned another page

Arm and arm into the state park on graduation day

Oh, she make me nervous – I shiver and shake

But she'll never hear this; never hear me say

Hugging friends and kissing parents, and I heard you state

This world may never be the same, but we will never change

So, you keep on searching, and me I do the same

But nothing is working, 'til you come my way

If it were me talking, I'd take you dancing

If it were me, and not that man

I'd put a gold ring on ya; I'd take you to the altar

If it were me, and not that man

And the boys who sent you post cards, where are they now?

In the arms of New York City who laid her money down

Maybe go to Europe; spend a summer in Spain

But girl you're just flirting, and burning through your days

If it were me talking, I'd take you dancing

If it were me, and not that man

I'd put a gold ring on ya; I'd take you to the altar

If it were me, and not that man

I'm not the same boy I used to be

I'm not the same boy you met

I'm not the same boy, but I'd make the same choice

I'd make the same one, you bet

The prettiest girl I'm watching here at the game

All alone on the arm of a boy on homecoming day

Oh, she make me nervous – I shiver and shake

But she'll never hear this; never hear me say

If it were me talking, I'd take you dancing

If it were me, and not that man

I'd put a gold ring on ya; I'd take you to the altar

If it were me, and not that man

If it were me, and not that man

If it were me, and not that man
