Sorrys

You were born into shade

Beautiful and pale

Your dad was always away

You gave birth in July

Since then my baby and I

Well, we hide away

Sorrys, seven years of sorrys

I was trying to catch your eye

Rolling, into the river you were caught in

I saw you flowing and couldn't swim back

Well, now your silence fading

It was too cold and shaking

I thought he saw you waving

I guess he wasn't trained

To be raised by someone unhappy

I took all the pain for him

Sorrys, seven years of sorrys

I was trying to catch your eye

Rolling, into the river you were caught in

I saw you flowing and couldn't swim back

Sorrys, seven years of sorrys

I was trying to catch your eye

Rolling, into the river you were caught in

I saw you flowing and couldn't swim back

You were born into shade

Beautiful and pale

Your dad was always away
