Lullaby In Blue

I know that i'm no saint.
My head is in the clouds.
They called you a mistake,
But i still, i still say your name out loud.

They called me a stupid girl,
Just like my mom.
Too many men passed through my arms.
At seventeen i looked into your eyes,
Knew i could never comfort your cries.
Every april still reminds me of you.
The child i never knew.
My lullaby in blue.

It all goes by so fast.
How lovely you must be.
Why you've reached the age at last
That i was when your daddy lived with me.

How i wish we could meet somewhere,
Talk it through.
There is so much i would say to you.
There are others, i'm not alone.
A younger brother you've never known,
And a baby girl who so reminds me of you.
The child i never knew.
My lullaby in blue.

As the years go by,
Try not to think of us sadly.
Believe it if you can,
I wanna see you so badly.
On your birthday, mama's thinking of you.
The child i never knew.
My lullaby in blue.
My lullaby in blue.
My lullaby . . .
