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 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 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
