Only Child

CHORUS
Only Child of mine
I'm sorry if you're lonely
It was once too easy
Not to see
I should have given you
A brother to look up to
Or sister to soothe your fears
When solitary tears
Turn your only world to blue

It seems too late in life
To change my early ways
To give you another
To help complete your days

If I could have the chance
To take back past mistakes
I'd create a new life
A second birthday cake

CHORUS
Only Child of mine
I'm sorry if you're lonely
It was once too easy
Not to see
I should have given you
A brother to look up to
Or sister to soothe your fears
When solitary tears
Turn your only world to blue

Shared blood who'd surely love
To right you when you're wrong
Create new memories
Long after I am gone

Others who have siblings
Can say some hurtful things
Maybe they don't understand
That only one can sting

BRIDGE
I'll always believe
Perfection was achieved
When two hearts
Became one
To create you
My son

CHORUS
Only Child of mine
I'm sorry if you're lonely
It was once too easy
Not to see
I should have given you
A brother to look up to
Or sister to soothe your fears
When solitary tears
Turn your only world to blue
