I just wanna tell you that I'm sorry,
cause I've let you down
Fell from grace, right onto the ground I know I've lost my way,
and I've never
said goodbye I just wanna tell
you that I'm sorry, cause
Cause I've let you down,
down, down, down
She wasn't there on the day I was born
She wasn't there when I
took my first step
She wasn't there when I
learned how to speak
But she was there when it
came to raising me
A lot of resentment growing up
and I know there shouldn't be
A lot of bridges burned
from the mistakes that I made
From the lies to the theft,
yeah, she still found a way to love me
Even when I ran away twice,
she still told me that she loved me
I'm not the perfect son
and I'll never claim to be
Healin' takes time and I'll work
to show that I've changed patiently
I know even when the bridges are fixed,
cracks will not be hard to see
See honestly, if I'm being honest,
you're the best mom for me
No, I don't have your eyes
or share any of your traits
I do have your guidance and to me
that's what makes a difference
This may not make a difference,
but maybe one day this can make you smile
I'm not sayin' this for forgiveness,
I'm sayin' this so it's heard
I explain myself bet ter when
it's wrote out in a verse
I just want to tell you that I'm sorry,
cause I've let you down
Fell from grace, right on to the ground
I know I've lost my way,
and I never said goodbye
I just want to tell you that I'm sorry,
cause I've let you down
Then I met her, someone who right
fully is out of my league
Some may even say they're good for me,
they wouldn't be wrong
Especially if they knew the
life I chose early on
I do however regret the pain I caused
Not only to you or dad
But everyone who suffered when I was gone
I hope that we can recover to
being like mother and son
I just wish for a format of some type of bond
To have my mom back
The person I wish to go to when
everything is wrong
So when I go to buy a
house or maybe a car
You will be there to say yes or no
on the idea that we have
Maybe a bad day or maybe
just everything is falling apart
That you will be there to say
everything will be okay
I know this may be hard to hear
But I love both you and dad. I understand the
reason be ing that of which is my past
I will continue to grow being more
and more of a man.
Yes, we may disagree every
now and then we are all different
So I'm fully prepared for that.
But no matter what I'll show I
won't turn my back again
So as I move through and work hard
to work out the kinks
I only hope and wish that you will work with me. I just
wanna tell you that I'm sorry cuz I've let you down
Fell from grace right on to the ground
I know I've lost my way,
and I never said goodbye
I just wanna tell you that I'm sorry
Cause I've let you down, down, down,
down
You
