lyrics

IF I COULD LOVE YOU

Babe, if I could love you
If I could be the man
If only God was put above you
Then I would take your hand
And if that love could shine through
If it could break me down
Then I could really see you
And understand

That there is a way
Cause I’ve got plans for a brighter day

Babe if I could love you
Turn emotion on
Let the feeling work through
And make me strong
Babe if I could love you
Give you everything you need
You know I need your love too
Oh, to set me free

Pain has been around me
It’s been my only friend
Now a wall surrounds me
So I won’t hurt again
But oh, you’re waiting outside
Knocking on my door
I want to climb on down to your side
So you don’t wait no more

Please don’t pull away
Cause I’ve got plans for a brighter day

Babe if I could love you
Turn emotion on
Let the feeling work through
And make me strong
Babe if I could love you
Give you everything you need
You know I need your love too
Oh, to set me free

Let’s break these walls down
Let sunlight shine through
Start a new day
I’ll really love you

Babe if I could love you
Turn emotion on
Let the feeling work through
And make me strong
Babe if I could love you
Give you everything you need
You know I need your love too
Oh, to set me free
