Sorry

I am sorry for not being there on the night of your show 
The biggest night of one’s true life
I am sorry I missed that big game
The one you say you were there to play
That night I’m sorry when I wasn’t there to go on tour 
The tour of your life
I am sorry I missed the biggest day
Of that same day you married him
But all this I say sorry for
I really watched up by heaven’s door
So when I say I’m sorry 
I really mean
I am sorry for not saying anything when I was dying
