IF IT WAS ME
(Phil TurnerCopyright ©2010)
Everyday she shuffles down the street
Cold rice in her hair
Nothing on her feet
People never hear her when she cries
Cardboard box is home
Sleeping rough each night
Some days, stop and wonder
I could, could be like her
Ask myself
(CHORUS)
IF IT WAS ME
Oh how would I feel
What if the hard times
Came crashing down on me
What if it’s me
That no one can hear
Feeling so lonely
Having lost everything
We can judge some people far too quick
Shattered lives for some are hard to fix
Friends told me that once she had it all
A family that she loved
A teacher in a school
Then one day her world it fell apart
Her baby son he died
And she took it hard
Some nights, oh I can’t sleep
Cos I, ‘cos I still fear
Ask myself
(REPEAT CHORUS)
We, we cannot know what lies ahead
Yes, we can all smile when life goes well
If problems come oh can we cope
We don’t know oh we all hope
That we are strong
We can judge some people far too quick
Shattered lives for some are hard to fix
(REPEAT CHORUS)
If my world caved in
I won’t be alone
Cos my one true love
Oh she’ll never leave
Oh she’ll never leave
