A brand new baby was born yesterday
|
Just in time
|
Papa cried, baby cried
|
Said your tears are like mine
|
I heard some words
|
From a friend on the phone
|
That didnt sound so good
|
The doctor gave him two weeks to live
|
Id give him more if I could
|
|
You know that I would now
|
If only I could
|
You know that I would now
|
If only I could
|
|
Down the middle drops one more
|
Grain of sand
|
They say that
|
New life makes losing life easier to understand
|
Words are kind
|
They helped ease the mind
|
Of this, my old friend
|
And though you gotta go
|
We'll keep a piece of your soul
|
What goes out
|
What goes in
|
|
You know that I would now
|
If only I could
|
You know that I would now
|
If only I could
|
|

If I Could
