[00:19.70]If I could
[00:23.73]I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes
[00:32.38]Give you courage in a world of compromise
[00:42.03]Yes, I would
[00:46.68]If I could
[00:49.78]I would teach you all the things I've never learned
[00:58.41]And I'd help you cross the bridges that I've burned
[01:08.64]Yes, I would
[01:13.03]If I could
[01:15.88]I would try to shield your innocence from time
[01:24.56]But the part of life I gave you isn't mine

[01:36.94]So I could let you go
[01:46.49]If I could
[01:53.16]I would help you make it through the hungry years
[02:02.50]But I know that I can never cry your tears

[02:23.81]If I live

[02:45.07]My yesterday
[02:49.44]Won't have to be your way
[02:58.78]If I knew
[03:03.49]I'd have tried to change the world I brought to you to
[03:12.86]And there isn't very much that I can do
[03:23.53]But I would
[03:28.47]If I could...
[03:33.80]
[04:17.60]but I would
[04:23.04]If I Could!
[04:33.90]But the part of life I gave you isn't mine
[04:36.23]If I could
