Mistake of a Lifetime...Part 3

Could this really be true ? 

Have I done what I tried so hard not to do ? 

'Cause what I see in front of me 

is a sight that I wish not to see. 

She is pregnant now, and I just don't know what to do. 

'Cause when I saw her, my brain split into two. 

But what pains me the most, 

will haunt me worser than the haunting of a ghost. 

I asked her, " Am I the father ?" 

I already knew the answer so why did I bother. 

She asked me, " Why wouldn't you be ?" 

If only she knew how hard this is for me. 

I still can't believe that I gave her an infant. 

If I could go back in time, I'd change this mistake in an instant. 

But it doesn't matter anymore. 

Because this day was coming eversince I walked through this woman's door. 

So now, I invite her to dinner with me and my parents. 

So she goes to the car as I grab the presents. 

Now as we make our way to the dinner she has another deadly announcement to make. 

But this is an announcement that I wouldn't easily take. 

Now again, I just don't know what to do. 

For the baby, that was at first one, became two...
