(Oh if you could
see me now)
(Oh if you could
see me now)
It was February 14
Valentines Day
the roses came
but they took you away
Tattooed on my arm
is a charm to disarm
all the harm gotta keep
myself calm but the
truth is you're gone
And I'll never get to
show you these songs
Dad you should see
the tours that I'm on
I see you standing there
next to Mom
always singing along
yeah arm in arm
And there are days
when I'm losing my faith
because the man wasn't
good he was great
He'd say "Music was the
home for your pain"
and explained
I was young
he would say
"Take that rage
put it on a page
take that page
to the stage blow the
roof off the place"
I'm tryna make you proud
do everything you did
I hope you're up there
with God saying
"That's my kid!"
I still look for your face
in the crowd
oh if you could
see me now
Would you stand in
disgrace or take a bow
oh if you could
see me now
(Oh if you could
see me now)
If you could see me now
would you recognise me?
Would you pat me on
the back or would you
criticize me?
Would you follow every
line on my tear-stained
face, put your hand on a
heart that was cold as the
day you were taken away
I know it's been a while
but I can see you
clear as day
Right now
I wish I could hear
you say
I drink too much
and I smoke too much
dutch but if you can't
see me now then
that shit's a must
You used to say
I won't know a will
until it costs me
Like I won't know
real love till I've loved
and I've lost it so if you've
lost a sister then
someone's lost a mom
And if you've lost a dad
then someone's lost a son
And they're all missing out
And they're all missing out
So if you get a second
to look down at me now
Mom, Dad I'm just
missing you now
I still look for your face
in the crowd oh if you
could see me now
Would you stand in
disgrace or take a bow
oh if you could
see me now
Oh, oh
Would you call me
a saint or a sinner?
Would you love me
a loser or winner?
When I see my face
in the mirror
we look so alike
that it makes me shiver
I still look for your face
in the crowd
oh if you could
see me now
Would you stand in
disgrace or take a bow
oh if you could
see me now
I still look for your face
in the crowd
oh if you could
see me now
Would you stand in
disgrace or take a bow
oh if you could
see me now
Could see me now
Me now
