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
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
<Interlude>
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
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
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
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
if I was the one, the one
If I was the one in your life
e the time and get it right
