If I can stop one heart
from breaking,
I shall not live in vain.
If I can ease one's aching,
I shall not live in
ruthlessness.
If I can help one fainting
robin into his nest again,
I shall not live blind.
In the journey of life,
we experience pleasure and pain,
sunshine and rain, as well as loss and gain.
If I could, I would give you the sun,
the moon, and a sky full of stars.
I know you would manage
to make the earth shine brighter.
If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you,
And share with you its beauty.
On the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain,
you could call it your very own;
A place to find serenity,
a place to be alone.
If I could take your troubles,
I would toss them in the sea,
but all these things
I'm finding are impossible for me.
I cannot build a mountain
or catch a rainbow fair,
but let me be what I know best,
A friend who's always there.
If I could make life better for you,
I would. But I can't.
All I can do is let you know that
mine has been better because of you.
If love was time, I would give you eternity.
If kisses were water, I'd give you a sea.
If hugs were
leaves,
I'd give you a tree.
If life were
a planet,
I'd give you a galaxy.
If friendship was
life,
I'd give you mine.
A life that is devoted to another's welfare is a life well-lived.
