If I Could |
| If I could |
| I’d protect you from the sadness in your eyes |
| Give you courage in a world of compromise |
| Yes, I would |
| If I could |
| I would teach you all the things I’ve never learned |
| And I’d help you cross the bridges that I’ve burned |
| Yes, I would |
| If I could |
| I would try to shield your innocence from time |
| But the part of life I gave you isn’t mine |
| I’ve watched you grow |
| So I could let you go If I could |
| I would help you make it through the hungry years |
| But I know that I can never cry your tears |
| But I would |
| If I could |
| If I live |
| In a time and place where you don’t want to be You don’t have to walk along this road with me My yesterday |
| Won’t have to be your way |
| If I knew |
| I’d have tried to change the world I brought to you to And there isn’t very much that I can do But I would |
| If I could… |
| Oh baby… mummy wants to protect you |
| And help my baby through the hungry years |
| It’s part of me And if you ever… ever need |
| Sad shoulder to cry on |
| I’m just someone to talk to |
| I’ll be there… I’ll be there |
| I didn’t change your world |
| But I would |
| If I Could! |
