Lyrics

Put yourself in my place If only for a day See if you can stand The awful hurt I feel inside Put yourself in my place For just a little while Live through the loneliness The endless emptiness I go through And when you lose a little sleep at night Cause you ain't been treated right Then you know heartaches are sad Sitting by the telephone Being left all alone Then you know why I'm feeling bad Put yourself in my place And when you're just about to go insane Cause it hurts to love in vain Ask a girl who's been in love I believed your evil line Now I'm left alone and crying Alone to count the stars above Put yourself in my place If only for a day See if you can stand The awful emptiness I feel inside Put yourself in my place Put yourself in my place For just a little while Why don't you try it Why don't you try it Why don't you try it baby Put yourself in my place If only for a day Why don't you, why don't you Why don't you try it Why don't you try it Why don't you try it baby
