If I Was The One

Ohh..

I see the way he treats you

I feel the tears you cry

And it makes me sad

And it makes me mad

There's nothing I can do baby

Cause your lover is my best friend

And I guess that's where the story ends

So I've gotta try to keep it inside

you will never be, never be mine

If I was the one who was loving you baby

The only tears you'd cry would be tears of joy

And if I was by your side

You'd never know one lonely night

And if it was my arms you were running to

I'd give you love in these arms of mine

If I was the one in your life

If I could have just one wish

I'd wish that you were mine

I would hold you near

Kiss away those tears

I'd be so good to you baby

You're the one I want next to me

But I guess that's just not meant to be

He's there in your life and he's sharing your nights

You will never be, never be right

If I was the one who was loving you baby

The only tears you'd cry would be tears of joy

And if I was by your side

You'd never know one lonely night

And if it was my arms you were running to

I'd give you love in these arms of mine

If I was the one in your life

I wanna reach out and feel you beside me

(right here beside me babe)

Take you in my arms right now

(take you in my arms right now)

Scream I love you right out loud

Someday I pray that I'll find the strength

To turn to you and say:

If I was the one who was loving you baby

The only tears you'd cry would be tears of joy

And if I was by your side

You'd never know one lonely night

And if it was my arms you were running to

I'd give you love in these arms of mine

If I was the one in your life

If I was the one who was loving you baby

The only tears you'd cry would be tears of joy

And if I was by your side

You'd never know one lonely night

And if it was my arms you were running to

I'd give you love in these arms of mine

If I was the one in your life
