i saw you from across the room
our eyes met
i saw a smile
and i knew i should try
a cold wind blew
i wanted you
but i was shy
in the end i looked at you
time passed
and the moment was gone
how can i expect you to want me
if i'm too shy to try
...when i was a kid...
i was hurt by someone
i started drinking, i started smoking
i was a bum
i played my guitar
i read books
i layed in the sun
ya, now i can play
but those days are gone
how did i expect to be anything
if i never even tried
never thought that the day would come
that i would have to deal with the pain within
and through my selfishness
i never took time to do those things
but ma,
i wanted to
resolve the issues
i planned to come home
but i didn't
time passed
and now you're gone
how did i expect you to forgive me
if i never even tried
all i wanna say is
i forgive you
i hope you forgive me too

Jacob,
I know she forgave you even before she left this earth! I heard he talk and I knew her heart.
This is a beautiful tribute written by one of her masterpieces, in this life! She loves you so very much!
Love, Aunt Liz ♥♥♥
Tears again today because of this song - how much I, also miss her.
