In the morning I was blessed with you
A part of me growing in the world
I held you close and loved you so
But things didn't pan out quite the way I'd
Hoped them to
I'm sorry I had to go
I'm sorry the tears had to flow
I'm sorry like you'll never know
But l will never let go
Open wounds and shattered hopes
Nothing like a father's love
Your absence weighed on my heavy heart
So I found fickle love in strangers' arms
I'm sorry I had to go
I'm sorry the tears had to flow
I'm sorry like you'll never know
But l will never let go
You are the sun and the stars and the moon
You are the beat and the words and the tune
You are the light at the heart of my room
When we're together, it passes too soon
Growing up fast, you had to learn how fragile a
Heart can be
With every separation pain your voice
Consoling me, you're alive
Just stay alive
The march of time beats a steady drum
Here I lie and my time has come
When words have gone just hold my hand
You know things didn't turn out quite the way
I'd planned
I'm sorry I have to go (Don't go)
I'm sorry the tears have to flow
(These tears will flow)
I'm sorry like you'll never know
Remember me it's time to let go
