Sorry

August 28, 2006Scott Downes No Comments »

There’s nothing here for little you to be ashamed of
Nothing wrong with wanting to be thought of
But three years old is too young to be in love
Sorry that you ended up like me

So much heartbreak for you to look forward to
So many pretty little feet that’ll walk out the door on you
But not one way to say what I know will be in store for you
Sorry that you ended up like me

I watch your heart go bouncing off when you like what you see
So let me impart this lesson the way it was once taught to me
Just cause you want it doesn’t make it free
Sorry that you ended up like me

Got your grandfather’s hands and your mother’s eyes
And your crazy father’s need to overanalyze
Wish I could spare you the whole sad surprise
That it only gets worse when you’re my size

Maybe I can share some tricks with you
How to make sure that nothing sticks to you
I can only hope that some of it clicks for you
Sorry that you ended up like me
