SINGER: Regina Belle

SONG:If I Could

Ooh, ooh
ooh
oh, ho
yeah, yeah
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
Chorus:
if i could
i would try to shield your innocence from time
but the part of life i gave you isn't mine
i'll watch you grow, so i can 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, babe
but i would if i could
If i could
in a time and place where you don't wanna 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 try to change the world i brought you to
now there isn't much more that i can do
but i would if i could
Chorus
If i could
