If I Could

If I could

I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes

Give you courage in a world of compromise

Yes, I wouldIf 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 wouldIf 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 goIf 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 couldYes, 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 wayIf I knew

I would try to change the world I brought you to

And there isn't very much that I could do

But I would If I couldOh baby, daddy wants to protect you

And help my baby through the hungriest

'Cause your part of me and if you ever ever need

Said a shoulder to cry on or just someone to talk to

I'll be there, I'll be thereI didn't change your world

But I would if I could

Oh darling, I love you baby
