(Oh if you could see me now)
(Oh if you could see me now)
It was February 14 Valentines 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
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!”
[Chorus:]
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
(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 shit’s a must
You used to say I wont know a wind until it crossed me
Like I wont 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 (Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Oh, oh
Would you call me a saint or a sinner?
Would you love me a loser or winner?
Oh, oh
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 (Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Yeah I’m just missing you now
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
If you could see, you could see me now [x2]
Prevod pesme
Da me vidiš sad
(E, da me vidiš sad)
(E, da me vidiš sad)
Bio je 14. februar, dan zaljubljenih
Ruže su stigle ali tebe su odveli
Istetovirana na mojoj ruci je amajlija da me štiti od zla
Moram ostati miran ali činjenica je da tebe nema
I nikad neću imati priliku da ti pokažem ove pesme
Tata, trebalo bi da vidiš turneje na koje idem
Vidim te kako stojiš pored mame
Oboje pevate zajedno, da, ruku pod ruku
I ima dana kad gubim veru
Jer taj čovek nije bio dobar, on je bio genijalan
On je znao reći “Muzika je dom za tvoju bol”
I objasniti mi da sam mlad, znao je reći
Uzmeš taj bes, staviš ga na stranicu
Izneseš tu stranicu na pozornicu
Digneš to mesto u vazduh
Ja pokušavam da te učinim ponosnim
Radim sve što si ti radio
Nadam se da si tamo negde sa Bogom i da kažeš “To je moj mali!”
[Refren:]
Još uvek tražim tvoje lice u masi
E, da me vidiš sad (E, da me vidiš sad)
Da li bi me se stideo ili bi mi se naklonio
E, da me vidiš sad (E, da me vidiš sad)
(E, da me vidiš sad)
Da me vidiš sad, da li bi me prepoznao?
Da li bi me potapšao po ramenu ili bi me kritikovao?
Da li bi pratio svaku crtu na mom suzama umrljanom licu
Stavio ruku na moje srce koje je hladno
Kao onoga dana kada si odveden
Znam da je bilo davno ali vidim te jasno kao dan
Baš sad, vooleo bih da mogu da te čujem kako govoriš
Da previše pijem i da pušim kao Turčin
Ali ako me sada ne vidiš onda je to neophodno
Znao si da kažeš da neću poznavati vetar dok mi se ne ispreči
Kao što neću upoznati pravu ljubav dok ne budem voleo i izgubio
Zato, ako si ostao bez sestre, neko je ostao bez mame
I ako si ostao bez oca onda je neko ostao bez sina
I svi oni nešto propuštaju, da svi oni propuštaju nešto
Zato ako imate trenutak da pogledaš dole ka meni
Mama, tata samo mi nedostajete
Još uvek tražim tvoje lice u masi
E, da me vidiš sad (E, da me vidiš sad)
Da li bi me se stideo ili bi mi se naklonio
E, da me vidiš sad (E, da me vidiš sad)
Oh, oh
Da li bi rekao da sam svetac ili grešnik?
Da li bi me voleo da sam gubitnik ili pobetnik?
Oh, oh
Kad se pogledam u ogledalo
Tako ličimo da me prođu žmarci
Još uvek tražim tvoje lice u masi
E, da me vidiš sad (E, da me vidiš sad)
Da li bi me se stideo ili bi mi se naklonio
E, da me vidiš sad (E, da me vidiš sad)
Da, sada mi samo nedostaješ
Još uvek tražim tvoje lice u masi
E, da me vidiš sad (E, da me vidiš sad)
Da li bi me se stideo ili bi mi se naklonio
E, da me vidiš sad (E, da me vidiš sad)
Da me vidiš, da me vidiš sad [x2]
