You were born into shame Beautiful and pale Your dad was always away You gave birth in July Since then my baby and I Well, we hide away Sorrys, seven years of sorrys I was trying to catch your eye Rolling, into the river you were caught in I saw you flowing and couldn't swim back Well, now your silent spirit It was too cold and shaking I thought he saw you waving I guess he wasn't trained To be raised by someone unhappy I took all the pain for him Sorrys, seven years of sorrys I was trying to catch your eye Rolling, into the river you were caught in I saw you flowing and couldn't swim back Sorrys, seven years of sorrys I was trying to catch your eye Rolling, into the river you were caught in I saw you flowing and couldn't swim back You were born into shame Beautiful and pale Your dad was always away
