Lyrics of If i could

If i could right now i'd like to be your mother
So i could give to you and not have to explain
I would brush your hair and tell you you'll be alright
And if you cried, well, you would not feel ashamed
But i, i am just a friend
And i will try again, again
If i could right now i'd like to be your journal
So you could tell me everything right on the page
And i'd never misunderstand you or say the wrong thing
And i would not feel deserted by your rage
But i, i am just a friend
And i will try again, again
If i could right now i'd like be a full moon
So i could rise up just to keep you company
And you could wonder out loud to me about the strange things
And you would think i understood the mysteries
But i, i am just a friend
And i will try again, again
