Miracle

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 
I'd have tried to change the world I brought to you to 
And there isn't very much that I can do 
But I would 
If I could... 
Oh baby... mummy wants to protect you 
And help my baby through the hungry years 
It's part of me 
And if you ever... ever need 
Sad shoulder to cry on 
I'm 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!
