love it leave it

cradle it in these loving arms

exposed to regret

alone enough to set

what made you think

it would work

exceptions spoken softly

raised it trained

felt the void and then filled it

it grew up to know you as the one to blame

now you've done it

and time will tell

but there's a price to pay

i hear the babies cries

i'll see you begging

on your knees for forgiveness
