I wrote this song with hopes of somehow donating it to an animal cruelty awareness organization. A bit later in the year I came across this incredible video in which Avril Lavigne's "I'm With You" was initially featured. I couldn't help (no pun intended) but wonder how my song "I Could Help" would follow along with this video (with which I have no claims of copyright nor do I profess any credit). I'm sure you will agree it fits perfectly and I hope Hope for Paws will benefit recognition and encouragement from my borrowing of their footage to spread gently around with my song!

"I Could Help"
copyright 2011 Kim Smith
recorded, produced, composed and performed by Kim Smith
I suppose I could turn and walk away
I suppose I could close my ears and say
Hey I just don't have the time
I suppose I could run and hide from it
I suppose I could shield my eyes from it
I suppose I could look away
But what about the ones in need of it
Oh what about the ones you deem unfit
Oh what about the…maybe I should pray
Or maybe I could help you out when no one else stands clear
Been down many roads and seen some things
Many broken souls and beaten wings
But only, only helped a few
Maybe I could save the world from it
Maybe I could carve it bit by bit
Or maybe I just don't have a clue
If I had it all I'd give it
If I helped at all I'd see it
When it comes
When it's time
I hope you'll make the climb
and maybe I could help you out
When no one else stands clear
