Put Yourself In My Place Lyrics By The Elgins

    put yourself in my place
    if only for a day
    see if you can stand
    the awful hurt i feel inside
    and oh
    put yourself in my place
    for just a little while
    live through the loneliness
    the endless emptiness i go through

    ooh 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
    oh my my

    ooh 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
    oh

    put yourself in my place
    if only for a day
    see if you can stand
    the awful hurt i feel inside
    ooo baby
    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 baby try it

    put yourself in my place
    ooh baby
    c’mon and try it
    c’mon and try it
    baby try it baby try it
    put yourself in my place
