| [00:09.890] |
if i could |
| [00:12.640] |
i'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes |
| [00:21.830] |
give you courage in a world of compromise |
| [00:30.290] |
yes i would |
| [00:35.387] |
if i could |
| [00:39.288] |
i would teach you all the things i've never learned |
| [00:47.417] |
and i'd help you cross the bridges that i've burned |
| [00:57.387] |
yes, i would |
| [01:02.347] |
if i could |
| [01:04.897] |
i would try to shield your innocence from time |
| [01:14.980] |
but the part of life i gave you isn't mine |
| [01:21.887] |
i've watched you grow |
| [01:25.698] |
so i could let you go |
| [01:35.270] |
if i could |
| [01:41.487] |
i would help you make it through the hungry years |
| [01:51.689] |
but i know that i can never cry your tears |
| [02:00.467] |
but i would |
| [02:04.800] |
if i could |
| [02:08.889] |
if i live |
| [02:16.640] |
in a time and place where you don't want to be |
| [02:25.500] |
you don't have to walk along this road with me |
| [02:34.790] |
my yesterday |
| [02:37.870] |
won't have to be your way |
| [02:47.850] |
if i knew |
| [02:52.840] |
i'd have tried to change the world i brought to you to |
| [03:01.790] |
and there isn't very much that i could do |
| [03:10.300] |
but i would |
| [03:16.670] |
if i could |
