For Mama

I'm sorry for the things I might have done
For all of the awards I haven't won
I'm sorry for the chances I let by
I'm sorry if I ever made you cry

I'm sorry for the words I never said
For all the worries I put in your head
I'm sorry for mistakes that I have made
I'm sorry for all the prices that you paid

I wish I could have always seen your smile
For you were right beside me all the while
I wish I could have eased your weary mind
I wish we could have had a bit more time

I'm sorry if I ever made you sad
For only knowing you has made me glad
I'm sorry if I ever broke your heart
I'm sorry that we ever had to part
