I Would

(The Prairie Scholars)

Jessica and Andy Eppler

Jessica wrote this one and I think it is a powerful song about heartache and powerlessness. 

I Would:

 

If I could I would forget you

I don’t regret you, but I’m living with an open wound

If I could I’d love you forever

But there’s not a place for us in this world

In this world for a boy and a girl, in this world

 

If I could I would steal you away

We would live out or days with no memory of what we left behind

If I could I would take up all your time, I would give you all of mine

We would never look at the clock, or check a watch

Or feel like we were running out, like we were running out

 

The risks that I can’t take, the choices I can’t make, the heart that aches, continually

You tell me you care and that you’ll always be there

So why do I still feel so alone?

You know that I still feel so alone

Darling I still feel so alone, so far away

As far as the night is from the day
