If You Were the Woman

V1:
You ever love someone so much; you’d give your life away
And even though you may never get to see it happen, you know they’ll shine the next day
You ever love someone so much; it takes years off your life
When the one who makes your heart ache, makes everything right

Hook:
I could teach you step by step and tell you everything I can
But unless you see it first hand, you may never understand

Chorus:
So let’s switch up the roles
Write a whole new plan
Let me be the one who gets to shut you down, when you’ve given all you have
‘Cause I know it takes a toll
On the script writers hand
Maybe then you’ll change your mind
If you were the woman and I was the man

V2:
Ever love someone so much; you’d take the world on
And you fight until there’s no harm left, and any evil now is gone
You ever love someone so much; you break all the rules
And you lose the essence of who you are, until no one the truth

Hook:
You might think you’ll know, but you’ll never understand
I want to make sure you will see. I’ll give you all I am

Chorus:
So let’s switch up the roles
Write a whole new plan
Let me be the one who gets to shut you down, when you’ve given all you have
‘Cause I know it takes a toll
On the script writers hand
Maybe then you’ll change your mind
If you were the woman and I was the man

Bridge:
A woman falls faster, if she’s nowhere near strong enough
And a woman falls harder, if no one’s there to pick her up
When he leaves her so weak left to wonder and reason
She is too damn broken to pieces up the pieces

V3:
You ever love so much; you already pictured your lives
But then you realize it will never happen when you lay your head at night
Ever love someone so much; they haunt your every dream
And no matter how many times you try to figure out
You won’t know what it means

Chorus:
So let’s switch up the roles
Write a whole new plan
Let me be the one who gets to shut you down, when you’ve given all you have
‘Cause I know it takes a toll
On the script writers hand
Maybe then you’ll change your mind
If you were the woman and I was the man
