If I Was the One

Ohh oh,no no no,baby
Listen
I see the way he treats you
IF I WAS THE ONE
I feel the tears you cry
And it makes me sad
And it makes me mad
Theres nothing I can do baby
Cuz your lover is my best friend
And I guess thats where the story ends
So I gotta try to keep it inside
You will never be,never be mine
But...
Chorus
If I was the one who was loving you baby
The only tears youd cry would be tears of joy
And if I was by your side
Youd never know one lonely night
And if it was my arms you were running to
Id give you love in these arms of mine
If I was the one in your life
If I could have just one wish
Id wish that you were mine
I would hold you near
Kiss away those tears
Id be so good to you baby
Youre the one I want next to me
But I guess thats just not meant to be
Hes there in your life,sharing your nights
Itll never be,never be right
Chorus
I wanna reach out and feel you beside me
Right here beside me,baby
Take you in my arms now
Scream I love you right out loud
Some day I pray that Ill find the strength
To turn to you and say...
Chorus x2
If I was the one
If I was the one
In your life
