Oh if you could see me now
Oh if you could see me now
It was february fourteen valentine's 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
And 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 explained 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 trying to make you proud do everything you did
I hope you're up there with god saying"That's my kid"
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow
Oh if you could see me now
Yeah yeah if you could see me now
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 a 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 I could hear you say
I drink too much and I smoke too much dutch
But if you can't see me now that shit's a must
You used to say I won't know a wind until it crossed me
Like I wont 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 out yeah they're all missing out
So if you get a second to look down on me now
Mom dad I'm just missing you now
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow
Oh if you could see me now
Oh oh ooh
Would you call me a saint or a sinner
Would you love me a loser or winner
Oh -ooh oh oh
When I see my face in the mirror
We look so alike that it makes me shiver
Oh if you could see me now
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow
Oh if you could see me now
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow
Oh if you could see me now
