That's what they said
"Kept to herself most of the time"
She had a secret and she swore she'd never tell
'Till the day she said goodbye
He always told her she was daddy's little girl
And mommy never had a clue
She closed her eyes and just denied the awful truth
Now mommy knows
Now mommy knows
Sorry
'Cause it didn't have to be this way
Sorry
No, it never should've been this way
Now when I look into the eyes of any child
All trace of innocence is gone
I look for reasons while I look the other way
And life goes on
Sorry
'Cause it didn't have to be this way
Sorry
No, it never should've been this way
Who's to blame?
"She was an ordinary girl"
That's what they said
"Kept to herself most of the time"
She had a secret and she swore she'd never tell
'Till the day she said goodbye
He always told her she was daddy's little girl
And mommy never had a clue
She closed her eyes and just denied the awful truth
Now mommy knows
Now mommy knows
Sorry
For the part you never got to play
Sorry
'Cause I couldn't stand in your way
