In Place of You

[Intro: 'A Cinderella Story']
It's you that I feel sorry for
You turned out to be exactly who I thought you were
Useless and disappointing
Okay, I know that you think that I'm just some...
Coward, phony
Okay, just listen
No, you listen

[Verse 1]
In place of you
I got a river flowing through
It runs faster than your love
Faster than the things you tryna do
Faster, then you start seeing somebody new
On top of all the things you was going through
The whole time you started seeing somebody new
Why did you tell me you’d wait forever
(Whole time)

[Chorus]
In place of you (Whole time)
I got a river running through me (Whole time, Whole time)
I got a river running through me (Whole time)
I got a river running through me

[Verse 2]
In place of you
There’s nothing to hide or cover up
Or undo
Took my heart and let it try to pursue
I don’t wanna try nothing else
Some random guy I can’t trust too
And I swear I won’t hide it from you

[Verse 3]
Think I could fall for you the way I want
To fall is no good thing
But I am different
Who’s the girl on your mind?
Twisting me up, I’m so sick
There I am different
Whole time
Though I got a river running through me flowing (Whole time)
And your love is so deep but it keeps me going
(Whole time, whole time) Yea you cut so deep don’t get me going
(Oooh) Can cast a spell on me but you just don’t know it
