Sadly Beautiful

From the very first day that you were born



To the very last time you waved and honked your horn



I had no chance at all to watch you grow



Up so sadly, beautiful



Up so sadly, beautiful



Baby needs a brand new pair of eyes



?Cause the ones you got now see only goodbyes



I had no chance at all to let you know



Oh so sadly, beautiful



Sadly, beautiful



Well, you got your mother's hair



And you got your mother's nose



But you got my soul



Sadly, beautiful



From the very last time you waved and honked your horn



To a face that turned away so pale and worn



I had no chance at all to let you know



You left me sadly, beautiful



You left me sadly, beautiful



Sadly, beautiful



So sadly, beautiful
