If I Could 가사

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 How I'd Try to Change the World I Brought You To And There Isn't Very Much That I Can Do But I Would If I Could If I Could I Would Try to Shield Your Innocence From Time But That Part of Life I Gave You Isn't Mine I Watched You Grow So I Could Let You Go If, If I Could I Would Help You Make It Through Those Hungry Years But I Know That I Can Never Cry Your Tears But I Would If I Could Yes I Would Yes I Would If I Could
