[00:12.27] If I could
[00:16.86] I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes
[00:25.36] Give you courage in a world of compromise
[00:34.49] Yes, I would
[00:38.90] If I could
[00:43.70] I would teach you all the things I've never learned
[00:52.55] And I'd help you cross the bridges that I've burned
[01:00.60] Yes, I would
[01:06.13] If I could
[01:10.54] I would try to shield your innocence from time
[01:19.36] But the part of life I gave you isn't mine
[01:28.31] I've watched you grow
[01:32.48] So I could let you go
[01:42.91] If I could
[01:48.21] I would help you make it through the hungry years
[01:56.73] But I know that I can never cry your tears
[02:06.13] But I would
[02:09.97] If I could
[02:18.76] If I live
[02:24.60] In a time and place where you don't want to be
[02:33.90] You don't have to walk along this road with me
[02:42.92] My yesterday
[02:47.01] Won't have to be your way
[02:57.31] If I knew
[03:02.96] I'd have tried to change the world I brought to you to
[03:11.65] And there isn't very much that I can do
[03:21.64] But I would
[03:25.45] If I could
[03:31.83] Oh baby... Daddy wants to protect you
[03:38.82] And help my baby through the hungry years
[03:45.67] Cause you are part of me
[03:48.17] And if you ever... ever need a
[03:53.41] Sad shoulder to cry on
[03:58.31] I'm just someone to talk to
[04:02.13] I'll be there... I'll be there
[04:06.83] I didn't change your world
[04:16.60] But I would
[04:21.95] If I could
If I Could. Lyrics
