It hurts me to see him treat you the way he does

It hurts me to see sit and cry

When I know I could be so true

If I had someone like you

It hurts me to see those tears in your eyes



The whole town is talking, they're callin' you a fool

For listening to his same old lies

And when I know I could be so true

If I had someone like you

It hurts me to see the way he makes you cry



You love him too much, you're too blind to see

He's only playing a game

But he's never loved you

He never will

And darling, don't you know he will never change



Oh, I know he never will set you free

Because he's just that kind of guy

But if you ever tell him you're through

I'll be waiting for you

Waiting to hold you so tight

Waiting to kiss you goodnight

Yes, darling, if I had someone like you
