[Intro]
(x2)
[Verse 1]
You re like some kinda lightning
You say all of the right things
You got me coming alive
After all of the hurt I ve had
Hate how he s still got me
Blame it on bad timing
You shouldn t come so close
When you re looking at me like that
[Chorus]
If I were you
I would be running, I would be leaving now
If I were you I wouldn t look back
Oh, but I want you to
Keep me in the back of your mind
Maybe call me up sometime
In a couple-a years if you haven t found somebody new
That s what I would do
If I were you
[Verse 2]
You wish I didn t miss him
And I wish I could kiss you
And have you be the only one
That I m thinking about
And I m not strong enough to
Resist for the both of us
If you stay I m gonna break your heart
I would make it stop before it starts
[Chorus]
If I were you
I would be running, I would be leaving now
If I were you I wouldn t look back
Oh, but I want you to
Keep me in the back of your mind
Maybe call me up sometime
In a couple-a years if you haven t found somebody new
That s what I would do
If I were you
[Bridge]
Who could do without you?
Baby, I have no doubt
You ll have found somebody else
By the time I figure it out
That s what I would do, mmm
If I were you
[Chorus]
If I were you
I would be running, I would be leaving now
If I were you I wouldn t look back
Oh, but I want you to
Keep me in the back of your mind
Maybe call me up sometime
In a couple-a years if you haven t found somebody new
That s what I would do
If I were you
If I were you
