《If I Could》

    The song 《If I Cloud》 is a greatly emotional, meaningful performance that done by Celine Dion, one of the most eminent divas in the world. To me,it is so truly and deeply that such love from a mother who wants to give it to her particularly own kid was expressed by the collaboration of both writer and singer. Once I heard this song, simultaneously, I was touched by such heavy but sweet lyrics and melody throughout the whole piece. Here, I hope more people could have a chance to hear the song and think at length about the love that our parents infused generously into our life.

If I Could lyrics
Songwriters: Sharron, Martha Vanessa; Hirsch, Kenny; Miller, Ronald Norman;

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 a 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 would try to change
The world I brought to you to
And there isn't very much that I, I could 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

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

Oh darling, I love you baby
