If You Could See Me Now

It was February 14th 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
Now 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 explain I was young he would say
Take that rage put it on a page
Take the page to the stage 
And 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

If you could see me now would you recognise me?
Would you pat me on the back or would you criticise 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 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 win till it cost me
Like I won't know real love till I've loved and I've lost it
So if you've lost a sister then someone's lost a mum
And if you've lost a dad then someone's lost a son
And they're all missing out yeah we're all missing out
So if you get a second to look down at me now
Mum, 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


Would you call me a saint or a sinner
Would you love me, a loser or winner
When I see my face in the mirror
We look so alike that it makes me shiver

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
