Don’t you remember who was there? When you weren’t Don’t you remember who picked you up? When you were drunk Say, how many times she played that role that You were supposed to do as a dad How many times she waited you at home, when you were wandering out there You brought darkness upon our clearest blue You brought tears to our eyes, when we were worried about you You turned your back and left us to collect dust You turned your back for those who loved you most All you had to do was say goodbye You could have just run away Everyone deserves another chance to try Don’t we all make mistakes? But after all she tried, couldn’t you just make it right? You didn't have everything you wanted? So why? Why did you make her cry? I remember who was there When you weren’t All of these years she was there for you Did you even care? She gave us our wings and she taught us how She’s the sweetest person I know there is no doubt And even thought you made it so hard She was there waiting for you, with her open arms All you had to do was say goodbye You could have just run away Everyone deserves another chance to try Don’t we all make mistakes? But after all she tried, couldn’t you just make it right? You didn't have everything you wanted? So why? Why did you make her cry? Runaway, oh try Please go away and cry Please go away and leave everything behind All you had to do was say goodbye You could have just run away Everyone deserves another chance to try Don’t we all make mistakes? But after all she tried, couldn’t you just make it right? You didn't have everything you wanted? So why? Why did you make her cry?
