If You Could See Me Now Lyrics
[00:03.46] Oh, if you could see me now
[00:12.95] Oh, if you could see me now
[00:17.19]
[00:21.71] It was February 14, Valentine's Day
[00:24.68] The roses came, but they took you away
[00:26.72] Tattooed on my arm is a charm to disarm all the harm
[00:29.59] Gotta keep myself calm but the truth is you're gone
[00:32.43] And I'll never get to show you these songs
[00:35.03] Dad, you should see the tours that I'm on
[00:37.18] I see you standing there next to Mom
[00:39.29] Both singing along, yeah, arm in arm
[00:41.90] And there are days when I'm losing my faith
[00:44.41] Because the man wasn't good, he was great
[00:46.82] He'd say music was the home for your pain
[00:48.93] And explain, I was young, he would say
[00:50.90] "Take that rage, put it on a page
[00:53.09] Take the page to the stage
[00:54.36] Blow the roof off the place"
[00:55.37] I'm tryna make you proud
[00:56.85] Do everything you did
[00:57.62] I hope you're up there with God
[00:58.98] Saying, "That's my kid"
[00:59.71] I still look for your face in the crowd
[01:03.23] Oh, if you could see me now
[01:05.84] (Oh, if you could see me now)
[01:09.24] Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow?
[01:12.92] Oh, if you could see me now
[01:15.56] (Oh, if you could see me now)
[01:19.39] Yeah
[01:22.53] (Oh, if you could see me now)
[01:24.86] Yeah
[01:28.45] If you could see me now, would you recognize me?
[01:30.89] Would you pat me on the back or would you criticize me?
[01:33.22] Would you follow every line on my tear-stained face?
[01:35.57] Put your hand on a heart that was cold as the day you were taken away?
[01:38.97] I know it's been a while but I could see you clear as day
[01:41.56] Right now, I wish I could hear you say
[01:43.56] "I drink too much and I smoke too much Dutch"
[01:45.60] But if you can't see me now that shit's a must
[01:48.28] You used to say I won't know a winner 'til it crossed me
[01:51.13] Like I won't know real love 'til I've loved then I've lost it
[01:53.71] So if you've lost a sister, someone's lost a mom
[01:56.08] And if you've lost a dad, then someone's lost a son
[01:58.46] And they're all missing now, and they're all missing now
[02:00.72] So if you get a second to look down at me now
[02:04.80] Mom, dad, I'm just missing you now
[02:06.95] I still look for your face in the crowd
[02:10.51] Oh, if you could see me now
[02:12.98] (Oh, if you could see me now)
[02:14.71] If you could see me now
[02:16.57] Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow?
[02:20.28] Oh, if you could see me now
[02:22.69] (Oh, if you could see me now)
[02:27.87] (Oh, oh)
[02:30.81] Ooh, would you call me a saint or a sinner?
[02:34.23] Would you love me a loser or a winner?
[02:37.22] (Oh, oh)
[02:41.61] When I see my face in the mirror
[02:43.48] We look so alike that it makes me shiver
[02:45.31] I still look for your face in the crowd
[02:48.96] Oh, if you could see me now
[02:51.56] (Oh, if you could see me now)
[02:54.96] Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow?
[02:58.55] Oh, if you could see me now
[03:01.18] (Oh, if you could see me now)
[03:02.62] (Yo, I'm just missing you now)
[03:04.63] I still look for your face in the crowd
[03:08.34] Oh, if you could see me now
[03:10.68] (Oh, if you could see me now)
[03:14.14] Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow?
[03:17.70] Oh, if you could see me now
[03:20.13] (Oh, if you could see me now)
[03:22.63] Oh, oh, oh
[03:26.69] (If you could see, you could see me now)
[03:31.57] (You could see, you could see me now)
[03:34.96]
