If I could I would

IF I COULD I WOULD

The mind is such a tender thing

With fear of what tomorrow brings

It stores the memories one by one

Lets us imagine that our day will come

Far into the darkness of the night

It's only our dreams that feel so right

For with the brightness of the day

All our demons will come back to play

If I could teach you to cope I would

It's something in me I never understood

That with the darkness of each day

The light at night is what shows the way
