Why can't she see

by ElegantlyWasted   Oct 28, 2004


My daughter sits alone at night, crying herself to sleep
If only i had the guts to offer, my shoulder for her to weep
I turned my back and closed my ears
I didn't give a stuff about her falling tears

I know I've done my child wrong
Never sung her one single baby song
I made her believe she was nothing to me
When heaven and earth I'd move to set her free

I let her drift that desert road
If i was a real mother, my love I'd have showed
Now my girl has lost her way
Even on my death bed i shall pay

Because I'm just another mother
Who left a daughter for a fake lover
In turn i cost my daughter her life
She only needed to cut the skin twice

I'll repay forever what i possibly can
So she'll see what a terrible mother i am

--I love my mother deeply--
