Celine Dion

Céline Marie Claudette Dion, CC OQ, (French pronunciation: [selin djɔ̃] ( listen); born March 30, 1968), is a popular Canadian singer. Born into a large family from Charlemagne, Quebec, Dion emerged as a teen star in the French-speaking world after her manager and future husband René Angélil mortgaged his home to finance her first record. In 1990, she released the English-language album Unison, establishing herself as a viable pop artist in North America and other English-speaking areas of the world. more »

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've 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've 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 cry your tears
But I would if I could

Yes, if I lived 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 still would if I could

Oh, baby, I just want to protect you
And help my baby through the hungry years
'Cause you're part of me

And if you ever, ever, ever need
A set of shoulder to cry on 
Or just someone to talk to
I'll be there, I'll be there

I didn't change your world
But I would if I could
