Lyrics:

                                                  
IF ONLY I COULD
Words and Music:

Wish we could go fish at Canyon Lake
Pitch a tent beneath the stars   
Sit around a campfire
You could teach me how to carve 
I’d listen to all your stories 
The ones I never wanted to hear
We only had twenty years together (could be any years)
How quickly they disappeared

CHORUS	
DAD  I SPENT MOST OF MY YOUTH
TRYING NOT TO WALK IN YOUR SHOES
AND I THOUGHT I DID PRETTY GOOD
NOW I’M FILLED WITH  REGRETS
I SHOULD HAVE FOLLOWED  IN YOUR FOOTSTEPS
NOW I’D GIVE ANYTHING IF ONLY I COULD

All the tears that you never shed 
Are now falling from my eyes 
As I kneel by your headstone
I pray you hear me tonight
I hope you’re fin’ly getting some rest
And your calloused hands have healed
All of your life you worked too hard 
I never told you how I feel

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE: 
Your shoes are hard to fill
Your steps were all up hill  

REPEAT CHORUS
Ohhh  I’d change everything if only I could
