Heritage

[Verse 1]
I wish I had a song to sing
To take your tears away
And see the smile come creeping
Back into your eye

[Verse 2]
If I had a dream to bring
To see you through your day
And keep you while you're sleeping
I'd put it by your side

[Chorus]
If we could only steal tomorrow
And put it in your life
Then I'd be satisfied

[Verse 3]
Close your eyes, my darling
Never fear the night
Be sure I'll be beside you
'Til the morning light

[Verse 4]
And every day a new mistake
God knows we need the sight
But still I'll try to guide you
Be it wrong or right

[Chorus]
If we could only steal tomorrow
And put it in your life
Then I'd be satisfied

[Outro]
But all I have are thoughts to borrow
I'll place them in your hand
And hope you'll understand
