so lonely, divided
i'm not where i wanna be
my consciense is weighted
the responsibility

and so i try, got to find a way
to make it right, don't you forget about me
it all takes time
don't you ever think you're left behind

all i want is the best for you
you deserve it, too, my innocent child
tell me something that i can do
i'd be happy to, my innocent child
all i want is the best for you
you deserve it, too, tell me something new

the anguish, i suffer
i want it to let me be
no harm was intended
but now it is haunting me

and so i try, got to find a way
to make it right, don't you forget about me
it all takes time
don't you ever think you're left behind

all i want is the best for you
you deserve it, too, my innocent child
tell me something that i can do
i'd be happy to, my innocent child
all i want is the best for you
you deserve it, too, tell me something new

it takes my heart out
got to live before we learn
it takes my heart out
i'll let my bridges burn

and so i try, got to find a way
to make it right, don't you forget about me
it all takes time
don't you ever think you're left behind

all i want is the best for you
you deserve it, too, my innocent child
tell me something that i can do
i'd be happy to, my innocent child
all i want is the best for you
you deserve it, too, tell me something new
just the best for you
you deserve it, too
just the best for you
