Put Yourself In My Place

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
