Testo If I Could

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
Didn't sound so good
The doctors gave him two weeks to live
I'd 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 help ease the mind
I miss my old friend
And though you've got to go, we'll keep a piece of your soul
One goes out, one comes in

You know that I would now
If only I could
You know that I would now
If only I could
