Phil Christie: Music

If I Could

(Phil Christie)
If I Could
(Written by Phil Christie)

I can tell before you say it
By the question in your eyes
We’ve been dancing round in circles
Getting lost in reasons why

And the words don’t come easy
Knowing I’m the one to blame
But for all that’s come between us
And for all I can’t explain

Here I am with my heart upon my sleeve
Trying to find a way to make you still believe

Chorus:
If I could
Baby I would turn the hands of time
To the day we started back when you were mine
Yes I would
I’d make it right this time for you
Just to hold you if I could

It was springtime in Toronto
We went walking by the bay
There were dewdrops on white roses
Like the tears upon your face

Forgive me for believing
I could make it on my own
They say sometimes we get lost
Maybe sometimes we come home

So here I am with my heart upon my sleeve
Trying to find a way to make you still believe

(chorus)

So here I am with my heart upon my sleeve
Trying to find a way to make you still believe

(chorus)
