I took you for granted
And in my head
The refrain is chanted.
If i could confront
Your ghost's of yesterday's
I would fall to my knees
I would beg for forgivness
I would beg you please.
I misplaced you in my life
I retreated to where i was concealed
I was scared, i was aloof
But now it's to late for me to reveal
now there is no proof.
How sad you were not in my life
How stupid i thought there would be more time
but you you were cut away like an emotional knife.
Now there's no peace in my heart
Never will i know you as my son
And that tears me apart.
Now i must go on
And know it will always be my fault, not much more to say
I will regret it for the rest of my days.
