I see the way he treats you
I feel the tears you cry
And it makes me sad and it makes me mad
Theres nothin I can do, baby
Cuz your lover is my best friend
And I guess thats where the story ends
So Ive gotta try to keep it inside
Youll never be, never be mine
- But if I was the one who was loving you, baby
The only tears youd cry would be tears of joy
And if I was by your side
Youd never know one lonely night
If it was my arms you were running to
Id give you love in these arms of mine
If I was the one in your life
If I could have just one wish
Id wish that you were mine
I would hold you near, kiss away those tears
Id be so good to you, baby
Youre the one I want next to me
But I guess thats just not meant to be
Hes there in your life, hes sharing your nights
Ill never be, never be, never be right
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 Ill pray Ill find
Ill find the strength to turn to you and say
If I was the one, if I was the one, the one
If I was the one in your life
