If I couldI'd protect you from the sadness in your eyesGive you courage in a world of compromiseYes, I wouldIf I couldI would teach you all the things I never learnedAnd I'd help you cross the bridges that I burnedYes, I wouldIf I couldI would try to shield your innocence from timeBut the part of life I gave you isn't mineI watched you growSo I could let you goIf I couldI would help you make it through the hungry yearsBut I know that I can never cry your tearsBut I wouldIf I couldIf I liveSongtexteIn a time and placeWhere you don't want to beYou don't have to walk along this road with meMy yesterdayWon't have to be your wayIf I knewI'd have tried to change the world I brought you toThrough there wasn't very much that I could doBut I still wouldIf I couldIf, if I couldI would try to shield your innocence from timeBut the part of life I gave you isn't mine.I watched you growSo I could let you goIf I couldI would help you make it through the hungry yearsBut I know that I can never cry your tearsBut I wouldIf I couldYes, I wouldYes, I wouldIf I could
