Diane Warren - If I Was The One lyrics

I see the way he treats you I feel the tears you cry And it makes me sad and it makes me mad There's nothin' I can do, baby Cuz your lover is my best friend And I guess that's where the story ends So I've gotta try to keep it inside You'll never be, never be mine 1 - But if I was the one who was loving you, baby The only tears you'd cry would be tears of joy And if I was by your side You'd never know one lonely night If it was my arms you were running to I'd give you love in these arms of mine If I was the one in your life If I could have just one wish I'd wish that you were mine I would hold you near, kiss away those tears I'd be so good to you, baby You're the one I want next to me But I guess that's just not meant to be He's there in your life, he's sharing your nights I'll never be, never be, never be right Repeat 1 I want to reach out and feel you beside me, beside me Right here, right now, right beside me baby, baby And take you in my arms right now And scream I love you right out loud And then someday I'll pray I'll find I'll find the strength to turn to you and say Repeat 1 If I was the one, if I was the one, the one If I was the one in your life
