It was february 14 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 on and on

And 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 explained I was young he would say

Take that rage put it on a page

Take that page to the stage

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 recognize me

Would you pat me on the back or would you criticize me

Would you follow every line on my tear-stained face

Put your hand on my 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 I smoke too much dutch

But if you can't see me now

That s**t's a must

You used to say I won't know a wind

Until it crossed me

Like I won't know real love 'til

I've loved and I've lost it

So if you lost a sister someone's lost a mom

And if you lost a dad then someone's lost a son

And they're all missing out yeah they're all missing out

So if you get a second to look down on me now

Mom dad I'm just missing you now

I still look for your face in the crowd

Oh if you could see me now

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

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

You could see you now
