If I could take one grain of faith and plant it in your field
Give you a dream of hope wrap you in it like a shield
Turn starlight into silver, make gold from the morning sun
Oh Oooooh William
If I could turn raindrops into pearls, turn black into white
Make the world a brighter place, just by holding you tight
If I could keep you safe from harm when the knives and the bullets run
Oh Oooooh William
If I could make things right for you with a wave and a friendly smile
Sprinkle stardust on your dreams and dry up all the tears you cry
If I could truly promise you better days will come
Oh Oooooh William
But I can make you a shelter out of autumn light where the heron’s shadow falls
Walk with you though the moonlight woods where the hoot owl softly calls
We’ll sit and watch the sparkling sea at the setting of the sun
Oh Oooooh my William
But I can only promise you to do the best I can
Walk beside you on the road as you grow to be a man
Bathe and wash your wounds try and heal the damage done
Oh Oooooh William
And I’ll put food on your table and water in your glass
Catch you when you stumble as you walk along the path
But If I could turn water into wine, then I’d be the chosen one
Oh Oooooh William
If I could turn water into wine, then I’d be the chosen one
Oh Oooooh William
