RAY CHARLES - IF I COULD LYRICS: "If I could - I'd protect you from the sadness in your eyes.
Give you courage in a world of compromise.
Yes, I would...
If I could - I would teach you all the things I never learned.
And I'd help you cross the bridges that I burned.
Yes, I would...
If I could - I would try to shield your innocence from time.
But, the part of life I gave you isn't mine.
I watched you grow - So I could let you go...
If I could - I would help you make it through the hungry years.
But, I know that I could never dry your tears.
But, I would - If I could...
Yes, if I live - in a time and place where you don't want to be,
you don't have to walk along this road with me.
My yesterday - won't have to be your way...
If I knew - I would try to change the world I brought you to.
And there isn't very much that I could do.
But, I would - if I could...
Oh, baby, Daddy wants to protect you.
And help my baby through the hungry years.
'Cause you're a part of me.
And if you ever, ever need, I said a shoulder to cry on,
Or just someone to talk to, I'll be there. I'll be there.
I didn't change the world.
But, I would - If I could...
(Spoken) 'Oh, darlin'. I love ya baby.'..."

"Time in a Bottle," by Jim Croce
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSp0PEBuzEc
If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day
Till Eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you
If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go
Through time with
If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty
Except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go
Through time with
If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day
Till Eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you
If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go
Through time with
If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty
Except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go
Through time with
