Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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 it means the most
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
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 it means the most
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
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
[Verse 9]
Take this to heart and you'll never part
These are the things that I would do if I were you
If I were you
If I were you
