|
Put yourself in my place |
|
If only for a day |
|
See if you can stand |
|
The awful hurt i feel inside |
|
Put yourself in my place |
|
For just a little while |
|
Live through the loneliness |
|
The endless emptiness |
|
I go through |
|
And when you lose a little sleep at night |
|
Cause you ain't been treated right |
|
Then you know heartaches are sad |
|
Sitting by the telephone |
|
Being left all alone |
|
Then you know why i'm feeling bad |
|
Put yourself in my place |
|
And when you're just about to go insane |
|
Cause it hurts to love in vain |
|
Ask a girl who's been in love |
|
I believed your evil line |
|
Now i'm left alone and crying |
|
Alone to count the stars above |
|
Put yourself in my place |
|
If only for a day |
|
See if you can stand |
|
The awful emptiness |
|
I feel inside |
|
Put yourself in my place |
|
Put yourself in my place |
|
For just a little while |
|
Why don't you try it |
|
Why don't you try it |
|
Why don't you try it baby |
|
Put yourself in my place |
|
If only for a day |
|
Why don't you, why don't you |
|
Why don't you try it |
|
Why don't you try it |
|
Why don't you try it baby |
|
Put yourself in my place |
