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 never learned
And I?d help you cross the bridges that I 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 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 of tried to change the world I brought you to
Though there wasn?t very much that I could do
I still would
If I could
