You know Ma I love you
and know that will never change
I live for your smiles and words of praise

But you know Ma
you been changing as of late
and I know thats cos of me leaving

You know Ma have you noticed
the phone calls are getting gloomer
Your face looks more tired and you smile less

You know Ma thats why I struggle calling
and I know thats selfish and I could present a million excuses
but I'm selfish

You know Ma I **** at expression
I don't know how to tell you
that I'm shying away from your pain

And I know thats cos of me leaving
but know Ma that I love you
I want you to forgive me

But the only way I know how to ask is
I'm sorry.
I know that's not good enough but
I'm sorry.
