(S. Peiken, A. Roman)

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

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 means the most

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

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

(Chorus)

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

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

Take this to heart

You'll never part

These are the things that I would do

If I were you
