Barbra Streisand - If I Could слова песни
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
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
how I`d try to change the world I brought you to
and there isn`t very much that I can do
but I would
if I could
if I could
I would try to shield your innocence from time
but that part of life I gave you isn`t mine
I watched you grow so I could let you go
if, if I could
I would help you make it through those hungry years
but I know that I can never cry your tears
but I would
if I could
yes I would
yes I would
if I could
