I know that
I'm no saint
My head is
In the clouds
They called you
A mistake
But I still
I still say
Your name
Out loud
They called me
A stupid girl
just like my mom
Too many men
Passed through
My arms
At seventeen
I looked into
Your eyes
Knew I could never
Comfort your cries
Every April
Still reminds me
Of you
The child
I never knew
My lullaby in blue
It all goes by
So fast
How lovely
You must be
Why you've reached
The age at last
That I was
When your daddy
Lived with me
How I wish
We could meet
Somewhere
Talk it through
There is so much
I would say to you
There are others
I'm not alone
A younger brother
You've never known
And a baby girl
Who so reminds me
Of you
The child
I never knew
My lullaby in blue
As the years go by
Try not to think
Of us sadly
Believe it
If you can
I want to see you
So badly
On your birthday
Mama's thinkin'
Of you
The child
I never knew
My lullaby in blue
My lullaby in blue
My lullaby...
