Karaoké If I Could Céline Dion

If I could I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes

Give you courage in a world of compromise

Yes I would if 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 would

If 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 go

If I could I would help you make it through the hungry years

But I know that I can never cry your tears but I would if I could

Yes 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 way

If 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 could, oh baby

I just want to protect you

And help my baby through the hungry years

'Cos you're part of me and if you ever ever ever need a set of shoulder to cry on

Or just someone to talk to

I'll be there I'll be there

I didn't change your world

But I would if I could
