| I wanna tell you a story
|
| One that doesn’t end well
|
| About a boy and his lonely
|
| And how his life went to hell
|
| See his mom wasn’t holy
|
| She took the easy way out
|
| I’ll try to tell him the story
|
| Hope he sees it ain’t his fault
|
| I saw my nephew cry
|
| When he found out his mother died
|
| Poor boy was only five
|
| When he asked why his mom wasn’t in his life
|
| We couldn’t tell him
|
| At the age of ten, for his birthday all he asked was this
|
| «Where did she go? |
| Why did she do it?
|
| Am I alone? |
| And can I make it on my own?»
|
| I hope you see that the world is bautiful
|
| And I pray that you see that it’s not your fault
|
| 'Cause we’re hre for you and we love you
|
| Cry it out, let it go, it’s all okay
|
| And even with the pain, there’s so much more, you see
|
| 'Cause we’re here for you and we love you
|
| At what point do you let it go?
|
| Flowers bloom and you grow old
|
| I hope our house can be your home
|
| So I can get your story told
|
| I saw my nephew cry
|
| When he found out his mother died
|
| Poor boy was only five
|
| When he asked why his mom wasn’t in his life
|
| We couldn’t tell him
|
| At the age of ten, for his birthday all he asked was this
|
| «Where did she go? |
| Why did she do it?
|
| Am I alone? |
| And can I make it on my own?»
|
| I hope you see that the world is beautiful
|
| And I pray that you see that it’s not your fault
|
| 'Cause we’re here for you and we love you
|
| Cry it out, let it go, it’s all okay
|
| And even with the pain, there’s so much more, you see
|
| 'Cause we’re here for you and we love you
|
| (I just wasn’t strong any more)
|
| (That'd make me love you forever)
|
| (I'm so sorry I did this)
|
| (You were the sparkle in my life that will live forever)
|
| That was yesterday
|
| (Remember what we’d say every night before bed?)
|
| You’ll find the strength
|
| (Life is short, it happens)
|
| When waves come crashing down
|
| (Be kind, and live everyday like it’s your last)
|
| When you’re lost and can’t be found
|
| (I love you, Dominic)
|
| I hope you see that the world is beautiful
|
| And I pray that you see that it’s not your fault
|
| 'Cause we’re here for you and we love you
|
| Cry it out, let it go, it’s all okay
|
| And even with the pain, there’s so much more you see
|
| 'Cause we’re here for you and we love you
|
| (Don't be sad)
|
| (I'm in a better place)
|
| (Be kind to one another)
|
| (And let that little boy know that his mother loves him very much)
|
| (Love, Megan) |
