"If I Were You" lyrics

"If I Were You"

I wonder if I had made the heavens
Would I give second chances
God, the way that you do

I wonder if I could open oceans
Would I even notice
The ones who need a way through

Whatever I would do
You do it better, better, better
God if I were you

It would've taken me forever
To put the pieces of me back together
I would've said that everything I've been through
Made me too far gone
I would've seen my every imperfection
And I'd have run the opposite direction
God if I were you I'd leave me back where I was
Thank God you're God and I'm not

You've shown me
You won't run out of patience
You don't get tired of waiting
When I would give up too soon

And I'm so grateful
You don't label me by my flaws
And I've never been a lost cause
God if I were you

It would've taken me forever
To put the pieces of me back together
I would've said that everything I've been through
Made me too far gone
I would've seen my every imperfection
And I'd have run the opposite direction
God if I were you I'd leave me back where I was
Thank God you're God and I'm not
Thank God you're God and I'm not
Oh... thank God you're God and I'm not

'Cause whatever I would do
You do it better, better, better
God if I were you

It would've taken me forever
To put the pieces of me back together
I would've said that everything I've been through
Made me too far gone
I would've seen my every imperfection
And I'd have run the opposite direction
God if I were you I'd leave me back where I was
Thank God you're God and I'm not
Thank God you're God and I'm not
Oh... thank God you're God and I'm not
