He never gave me the attention he gave Harry

He never showed an interest in me

I watched him from afar

Wishing I had a scar

So he would see the great wizard I could be



There was always a brightness dancing in his eye

And the hint of laughter just below the calm

I just couldn't do what the Dark Lord ordered me to

I couldn't do the old man any harm



No I couldn't kill Albus Dumbledore

I couldn't kill Albus Dumbledore

I couldn't kill Albus Dumbledore

I couldn't kill him



Finally I had him at my mercy

But I couldn't bring myself to kill the man

I selected a path to face up to the wrath 

Of not meeting the Dark Lord's demands



'Cause I couldn't kill Albus Dumbledore

No I couldn't kill Albus Dumbledore

I couldn't kill Albus Dumbledore

No I couldn't kill

Said I couldn't kill Albus Dumbledore
