All Along

The days I wouldn't sing to you or listen to your songs

In the mornings I've been too tired and sleeping far too long.

The nights you needed patience, but I wasn't feeling strong.

This here is me saying sorry, that I sometimes get things wrong

This here is me promising, in my heart you always will belong

This here is me telling you, that even in those moments, mummy loved you all along
