If I were you, I would open my curtains
If I were you, I would have a look outside
Put on my shoes and leave this sunken room behind
And I would drive

And on my way, I would visit your mother
If I were you, I would ask about her life
Maybe you'll find that being noticed for so long
Will make her cry

Hmm-mm

Who knows how long we got?
As long as I'm breathing, I
Know it's not too late to love

If I were you, I would pass by your brother's
Neither of you could ever throw a fight
But son, I am asking you to try to make amends
Before you die

Hmm-mm

Who knows how long we got?
As long as I'm breathing, I
Know it's not too late to love
