If I could, I'd make you happy forever.
Your eyes would never see a tear.
You'd always have a smile on your face.
You would never know any fear.

If I could, I'd give you all the blessings.
Your eyes would only see rainbows.
Happiness, joy, health and love
Is all you would ever know.

If I could, I'd stay by your side
To catch you in case you fell.
You would never know any pain at all.
You would be happy, healthy and hale.

If I could, I'd take you by the hand
And lead you down a primrose lane.
You'd live among the beauty God created
And there you would forever reign.

If I could, I'd have the angels sing for you.
Beautiful music is all you would ever hear.
You would know the angel's loving embrace.
You would always know they were near.

If I could, I'd take away your heartache.
You would know all about God's eternal love.
You would never want for affirmation.
God would bestow love on you from high above.

But I can't give you any of these things.
All I can offer is a friendship that is true.
I'll be there always in your darkest hour.
This is my promise - a promise I give to you.
