if you could see me now
the script
Oh, if you could see me now
Oh, if you could see me now
It was February 14th, 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
Both singing along, yeah arm in arm
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 explain I was young, he would say
"Take that rage, put it on a page,
Take the page to the stage, blow the roof off the place."
I'm tryin' to make you proud, do everything you did
I hope you're up there with God sayin' "That's my kid"
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh, if you could see me now
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
Yeah
Oh, if you could see me now
Yeah
If you could see me know would you recognize 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 the 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 he could hear you say,
I drink too much and I smoke too much Dutch
But if you can't see me now that sh*t's a must.
He used to say I won't know 'til it cost me
Like I won't know real love 'til I've loved and I've lost it
So if you've lost a sister, someone's lost a mom
And if you've lost a dad, then someone's lost a son
And they're all missing now, and they're all missing now
So if you get a second to look down at me now
Mom, dad, I'm just missin' you now
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh, if you could see me now
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
Oh,
Would you call me a saint or a sinner?
Would you love me, loser or winner?
Oh
When I see my face in the mirror
We look so alike that it makes me shiver
Oh
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh, if you could see me now
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
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh, if you could see me now
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
Oh, if you could see, you could see me now
