I Wish I Could Show You

The story goes The ghosts of past future and present They call them ghosts, I know 'Cause they’ve been scaring you to death, kid But as for me I wish I had those kinds of powers To let you see How much our world would change without you I wish I could show you That the world is better off with you here I wish I could show you How immeasurable your value is dear Depression lies Let’s get some help to make it quiet This road ain’t easy, no But we’re together so let’s keep trying You’re not alone here, no Don’t you believe that for a moment We’re all around you on this road We’re pressing on until we’re home Till we’re home, till we’re home I wish I could show you The ones that follow you as you’re taking your steps I wish I could show you How much hurt would take your place if you left And oh, I know Those voices scream so loud at you But no, please know Those voices aren’t as strong as you And they won’t last as long as you As long as you don’t leave us tonight We’re headed for the future I wish I could show you That the world is better off with you here I wish I could show you How immeasurable your value is dear I wish I could show you The ones that follow you as you’re taking your steps I wish I could show you How much hurt would take your place if you left I wish I could show you That the world is better off with you here I hope I can show you How much love your Maker has for you, dear
