Ray Charles - If I Could lyrics

Your rating:

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 never learned.

And I'd help you cross the bridges that I 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 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 could never dry 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, Daddy wants to protect you.

And help my baby through the hungry years.

'Cause you're a part of me.

And if you ever, ever need, I said a shoulder to cry on,

Or just someone to talk to, I'll be there. I'll be there.

I didn't change the world.

But, I would - If I could...



(Spoken) "Oh, darlin'. I love ya baby."...
