If I Were A Boy Lyrics - Beyoncã© | English Song

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man.
I'd listen to her
‘Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
‘Cause he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed…

If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd think that I was sleepin' alone
I'd put myself first
And make the rules as I go
‘Cause I know that she'd be faithful
Waitin' for me to come home (to come home)…

If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man

I'd listen to her
‘Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted (wanted)
‘Cause he's taken you for granted (granted)
And everything you had got destroyed…

It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it’s just a mistake
Think I'd forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong…

But you're just a boy
You don't understand
Yeah, you don't understand, oh
How it feels to love a girl someday
You wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
‘Cause you've taken her for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
But you're just a boy…
