| If I could I surely would
|
| Child ease your pain
|
| But if I could no longer
|
| Would you still know my name?
|
| If I couldn’t drain the tears
|
| That pour from these eyes
|
| Would you turn your back on me?
|
| Would you wave goodbye?
|
| Leave me way beyond empty inside
|
| Awaiting my last day to arrive
|
| Way beyond empty inside
|
| Awaitin' my end to arrive
|
| I couldn’t be the shoulder
|
| Which your head would rest upon
|
| Would you still be waiting, mama?
|
| Or would you be gone?
|
| If I couldn’t keep the smile
|
| Forever on your face
|
| Would I still be around?
|
| Or would I be replaced?
|
| Yeah, way beyond empty inside
|
| Awaiting my last day to arrive, yeah
|
| Way beyond empty inside
|
| Awaitin' my end to arrive, Oh-oh…
|
| Oh-ooh… Oh-ooh… Oh-ooohh
|
| And would you promise me
|
| That things they’d never change?
|
| Could you promise me
|
| That things they’d stay the same?
|
| If I couldn’t clear the clouds
|
| From over your head
|
| Would you keep your word to me?
|
| Amongst all the things you said?
|
| Or leave me way beyond empty inside
|
| Awaiting my last day to arrive, yeah
|
| Way beyond empty inside… Oh-ohoh
|
| Awaitin' my last day to arrive, oh yeah child |
