I Wish I Could Show You (Stripped) [feat. Maya Symone]

The story goes
The ghosts of past future and present
They call them ghosts, I know
'Cause they've been scaring you to death, kid
But as for me
I wish I had those kinds of powers
To let you see
How much our world would change without you

I wish I could show you
That the world is better off with you here
I wish I could show you
How immeasurable your value is dear

Depression lies
Let's get some help to make it quiet
This road ain't easy, no
But we're together so let's keep trying
You're not alone here, no
Don't you believe that for a moment
We're all around you on this road
We're pressing on until we're home
Till we're home, till we're home

I wish I could show you
The ones that follow you as you're taking your steps
I wish I could show you
How much hurt would take your place if you left

And oh, I know
Those voices scream so loud at you
But no, please know
Those voices aren't as strong as you
And they won't last as long as you
As long as you don't leave us tonight

We're headed for the future

I wish I could show you
That the world is better off with you here
I wish I could show you
How immeasurable your value is dear
I wish I could show you
The ones that follow you as you're taking your steps
I wish I could show you
How much hurt would take your place if you left
I wish I could show you
That the world is better off with you here
I hope I can show you
How much love your Maker has for you, dear
