Lyrics
RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES She left a not where her mom would be sure to see it There on her pillow were her daughter’s final words Dear mom and dad I just want you to know How much I love you - but I just can’t go on... I tried to tell you my life was just a lie I’m so ashamed of all the things I’ve done Mom please forgive me, but I have to say goodbye As the tears flowed down her cheeks You could hear her mother cry Lord please forgive me - how could I be so blind Not to see - what was right before my eyes Lord please forgive me - how could I be so blind Not to see - what was right - what was right Right before my eyes... He left the house, cursed as he slammed the door This time - don’t ever come back, go on boy - get off my yard! The two men never spoke - the years just slipped away One day a letter arrived - here’s what the words had to say Dear son I’m sorry, it was just my foolish pride I’m so ashamed of all the things I’ve done Son please forgive me, but I have to say goodbye As the tears flowed down his cheeks You could hear his son cry Lord please forgive me - how could I be so blind Not to see - what was right before my eyes Lord please forgive me - how could I be so blind Not to see - what was right - what was right Right before my eyes...
