If only I could, I would..

If I could change the world

I would, if I could

I'd take away pain and strife

I'd give everyone a perfect life

If I could bring peace

to one and all

I'd do it right now

I'd make the call

If I could work magic

and cure the sick

I'd do it this minute

I'd make it stick

If I could feed all the hungry

Make sure no one else was

without

I'd do it in a second

I'd do it without a doubt

If I could fix everyones' pain

Make them well and whole again

I would surely do it

If I could

If I could, I'd make the world well

again

I'd clean all pollution

in the rivers and streams

I'd make the world a place for

children to dream

If I could I'd do all this

If I could be your pillow

If I could warm your soul

If I could always be there

When life loses control

If I could be your water

When desert life winds bring

The worst life has to offer

I would be your song to sing

If I could be your ladder

To lift you from your pain

Then I could be fulfilled and

In your heart I would remain.

If I could change myself I

wouldn't

If I could change the world I

couldn't

If I could change things with a

rant

I would, but know, I simply can't

If I could go back years ago

To a gentler world than what we

know

I'd choose a peaceful, calmer

time

When it was easier to rhyme

If I could ease your troubled

heart

Some words of wisdom I'd

impart

I'd tell you that tomorrow's day

Will banish all your fears away

If I could just

Explain quite clearly

All that I mean

If it would just

Seem to be nearly

Plain and clean

If they could just

Appreciate it

I'd show my hand

But I would just

Hardly believe that

They'd understand

If I loved each person as I should

I'd make a difference, I know I

would

If I could I'd do all this

no doubt i would

I'm only one, it takes a few

To change this world of me and you..
