From the very first day that you were born
|
To the very last time you waved and honked your horn
|
Had no chance at all to watch you grow
|
Up so sadly, beautiful
|
Up so sadly, beautiful
|
|
Baby needs a brand new pair of eyes
|
'Cause the ones you got now see only goodbyes
|
Had no chance at all to let you know
|
You're so sadly, beautiful
|
You're so sadly, beautiful
|
You're so sadly oh so sadly, beautiful
|
|
Well you got your father's hair
|
And you got your father's nose
|
But you got my soul
|
Sadly, beautiful
|
You're so sadly, beautiful
|
You're so sadly oh so sadly, beautiful
|
|
From the very last time you waved and honked your horn
|
To a face that turned away pale and worn
|
Had no chance at all to let you know
|
You left me sadly, beautiful
|
You left me sadly, beautiful
|
You're so sadly oh so sadly, beautiful
|
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
|
