Anna Clendening - To My Parents Lyrics




I'm sorry mom and dad
I know I messed up bad
I should've, should've done, should've done better
I'm sorry mum and dad, for all the time I had
To get my life, to get my life together
But I didn't

1993, you gave birth to me
Sweet little baby girl
Had the world in my feet
Before I could even stand

Cradled me in your right and left hand
A precious bundle of unmade plans
Hopes and dreams of bigger things

A bright future so it seemed
Oh, but that light grew a little less bright
As I grew and we began to fight

When I was 13, I was so damn mean
Running away, had nothing more to say
Than I hate you
But that's not true now
I just don't, I just don't know how to say

I'm sorry mom and dad
I know I messed up bad
I should've, should've done, should've done better
I'm sorry mom and dad
For all the time I had
To get my life, to get my life together
But I didn't

You never talk about to your friends
Because you must be so embarrassed
I dropped out of college without any plans
Moved back home I couldn't even pay rent
I was living on your couch trying to figure it out
Putting myself up and tearing myself down

I'm sorry mom and dad
I know I messed up bad
I should've, should've done, should've done better
I'm sorry mum and dad
For all the time I had
To get my life, to get my life together
But I didn't

I'm sorry that I couldn't buy you
That house upon the hill
Or take care of all your medical bills
I know I didn't make you proud
I should've been someone by now
But I never figured out how

I'm sorry that I couldn't buy you
That house upon the hill
Or take care of all your medical bills
I know I didn't make you proud
I should've been someone by now
But I never figured out how

I'm sorry mom and dad
I know I messed up bad
I should've, should've done, should've done better
I'm sorry mom and dad
For all the time I had
To get my life, to get my life together

I'm sorry mom and dad
I know I messed up bad
I should've, should've done, should've done better
I'm sorry mum and dad
For all the time I had
To get my life, to get my life together
But I didn't
Sincerely your daughter
