Lyrics
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 could never cry your tears
But I would
If I could
Yes, if I live
In a time and place where you don't wanna 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 would've tried to change the world I brought you to
And there isn't very much that I could do
But I would
If I could
Oh baby, I just wants to protect you
And help my baby through the hungry years
It comes with 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...
