If I Were You Songtext

von Hoobastank

You seem to find the dark, when everything is bright.
You look for all that's wrong instead of all that's right.
Does it feel good to you?
To rain on my parade you never say a word, unless it's to complain.
It's driving me insane.

If I were you, holding the world right in my hands,
The first thing I'd do, is thank the stars for all that I have.
If I were you...

Look what's around you now.
More than you' ve ever dreamed.
Have you forgotten just how hard it used to be?
So, what's it going to take for you to realize, that it all could go away in one blink of an eye.
It happens all the time.

If I were you, holding the world right in my hands,
The first thing I'd do, is thank the stars above
(and) tell the world I love that I do.
If I were you...

So, whats it going to take for you to realize
(that)it all could go away in one blink of an eye.
It happens all the time.

If I were you, holding the world right in my hands,
The first thing I'd do, is thank the stars above,
For the ones I love,
(and)take a breath and enjoy the view,
(and)live the life that I wanted to.
If I were you...
