Billy Lockett Trade Places Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You phoned me on a Tuesday night
Strayed away, I start to cry
Said you're calling from the ward
Then you're climbing up the walls
It was lonely for a Tuesday night
So, I rush out with no keys and no coat
While the fear is blocking up my throat
And the bars and clubs are busy
But my mind is lost in dizzy
So I lock in to survival mode

[Pre-Chorus]
And I hate to say that I've been here before
But at least it means I helped you break the fall

[Chorus]
I wish I could trade places
With you till the pain's faded
Wanna be your life support, heart and soul
I would take it all if we
Trade places

[Verse 2]
Wait until the morning brings the light
And we're smoking in you car outside
And we took a little shot to the system, not an easy Tuesday night
But, I'm hoping that the morning brings the light [Pre-Chorus]
And I hate to say that I've been here before
But at least it means I helped you break the fall

[Chorus]
I wish I could trade places
With you till the pain's faded
Wanna be your life support, heart and soul
I would take it all if we
Trade places

[Bridge]
No, I don't wanna think the worst
But, god, you hit me where it hurts
Holding my breath every step of the way
I try to keep a diamond face
Tell you it'll be okay
But, I'm holding my breath every step of the way
(Mmm)

[Chorus]
I wish I could trade places
With you till the pain's faded
Wanna be your life support, heart and soul
I would take it all if we
Trade places

[Outro]
Yeah, if we trade places
Yeah, if we trade places
