I wasn't the reason why
Why do you have to go?
why I can't see your face?
why you don't say goodbye
why you leave me with this pain?
why I am so sad?
why I am so afraid?
did I do something wrong
to make you go away?
I'm sorry little girl
life sometimes is cruel
I don't want to make you cry
but there's nothing I can do
now I have to go
but you must know the truth
part of me had died
before I met you...
I'm sorry little girl
but I won't come back
I won't take care of your dreams
I won't hold you in my arms
I won't take away your fears
I won't save you from harm
I can't love you as I should
to not to break your heart.
Goodbye mom then
sadly I have to say
I must carry on alone
even if I'm afraid
45 years I will cry
until I understand
that I wasn't the reason why
you didn't stay.
