If I had the power

Location

If I had the power

 

If I had the power,

I’d wipe all your tears

And I’d scare all your fears

back into the darkness.

 

If I had the power,

I’d eliminate the fights

And I’d brighten the nights

you spend wandering the streets.

 

If I had the power,

I’d brake all the cars

And I’d erase all the scars

you make on your own skin.

 

If I had the power,

I’d lower this bridge

And I’d take you off the ridge

that you threaten to jump over.

 

If I had the power,

I’d love you and hold you

And I’d always remind you

that someone in the world does care.

 

If I had the power,

I’d go insane

And I’d take all your pain

if not forever, than just for the day.
