If You Were In My Place (What Would You Do ) - Duke Ellington & His Orchestra

If you were in my place

what would you do

Would you hold me in the same embrace

as I’m holding you?

Would you kiss and sigh just as I

then for another kiss insist

Would you scheme and dream, treat me mean

and tell me that you can’t resist?

If you were in my place, what would you say

Would you say to me as I say to you

'I feel that certain way'?

Like a heart that never spoke before

would you say as mine, 'It's you I adore'

If you were in my place,

darling what would you do?
