IF I WERE IN YOUR SHOES
john Kander (m) Fred Ebb (l)

as rec by Liza Minnelli  1964




So you're his new romance,
You lucky lucky girl!
If I were in your shoes,
I'd dance!
(scat)
If I were you,
I would dance on air,
I would bless my lucky star,
There'd be smiles to spare
If I were who you are!


It wasn't meant to be,
So graciously I lose!
But I would dance,
Oh how I'd dance
If I were in your shoes!


But now I sit alone,
The quiet life I choose,
Yet I would dance,
Oh how I'd dance
If I were in your shoes!
