Lyrics If It Was Me - Sarah Close

Thursday morning, I'm sat in the window seat
Facing the exit, 'cause I'm nervous, we're 'bout to meet
And it's raining, but I know that's not why you're late
Probably rehearsing all the things that you wanna say

I hear the bell, and I know it's you at the door
Take a deep breath, 'cause there's no hiding anymore
Pull out the chair, and you order your favourite drink
Won't go to war 'till I ask how you've been

If you think you're faultless
This is so hopeless
Why can't you just own up?
Turn around, say, "Sorry, I've done you wrong"

If it was me, I'd be kinder
With my words, I'd be wiser
And for my friends, I'd be a fighter
But you don't play fair, no
And if it was me, I'd be honest
Throw my hands up, say I've been thoughtless
If you live life like it's flawless
You can't play fair

It's getting heated, and I don't feel no good at this
Confrontation is a lesson I seemed to skip
You say you're sorry, but you still wanna argue your point
Even the waiter wants us out of this joint

If you think you're faultless
This is so hopeless
Why can't you just own up?
Turn around, say, "Sorry, I've done you wrong"

If it was me, I'd be kinder
With my words, I'd be wiser
And for my friends, I'd be a fighter
But you don't play fair, no
And if it was me, I'd be honest (If it was me, I'd be honest)
Throw my hands up, say I'd been thoughtless
If you live life like it's flawless
You can't play fair

Now you got me like
(Oh)
If it was you, looking through me
Would you be
(Woah)
Seeking the same apology?
Like
(Oh, woah, oh)
If it was you, looking through me
(Oh, woah, oh)
Would I turn around, say, "Sorry, I've done you wrong"?

If it was me, I'd be kinder
With my words, I'd be wiser
And for my friends, I'd be a fighter
But you don't play fair
If it was me, I'd be honest
Throw my hands up, say I've been thoughtless
If you live life like it's flawless
You can't play fair, no, no and
If it was me, I'd be kinder
With my words, I'd be wiser
And for my friends, I'd be a fighter
But you don't play fair, no, oh (But you don't play fair)

And if it was me, yeah, and if it was me (And if it was me, I would be honest)
You know for my friends, I'd be a fighter
But you don't play fair
