It's enough to make a boy cry
It's enough to make me ill
To have so much I wish I'd said 
And have to walk away still

It's enough to make a man frown
It's enough that you give us proof
But we trade it in, and once again 
We lost a little more of something true

I would be what I should be to be your baby
I would be what I should be to be your child
I would be what I should be to make you happy all the time
And make my difference worth your while

There's a light that makes things good
It's a hope that's more alive 
Than anything has ever been
And that hope, it will survive

Like a moth going 'round the sky
Don't we need to find our sight?
And so we go toward the glow 
That keeps us warm through bitter nights
Keeps us warm through bitter nights

I would be what I should be to be your baby
I would be what I should be to be your child
I would be what I should be to make you happy all the time
And make my difference worth your while
Make my difference worth your while

I would be what I should be to be your baby
I would be what I should be to be your child
I would be what I should be to make you happy all the time
And make my difference worth your while
Make my difference worth your while
