Verse One:
As the coldest Winter reigns in my heart
It shall colour my smile in greys
For your Daddy leaving's torn Mama's world
Now a snowflake, she falls and frays NICE METAPHOR
In your Mama's mind, the red leaves have dropped
Like the tears that she tries to hide
For the Autumn warmth that once blazed has gone
With your Daddy whose hurt inside
Chorus:
Oh my dear baby boy
Will you forgive me?
Forgive me?
For telling your Daddy to go, to go
Oh my dear baby boy
Will you believe me?
Believe me?
One day when you're older and know, and know
One day when you're older and know
Oh my dear baby boy
Will you forgive me?
Forgive me?
For telling your Daddy to go, to go
Oh my dear baby boy
Will you believe me?
Believe me?
One day when you're older and know, and know
One day when you're older and know
Verse Two:
There are times in Summer love burns my lipsBut the memories never coolFor your Daddy runs like hot, stormy rainThrough your Mama, though he's a foolIn your Mama's eyes, your laugh twinkles brightAnd she feels that the skies are blueFor the Spring does blossom sweet buds of hopeWhich shall wipe all her tears of dewChorus:Oh my dear baby boyWill you forgive me?Forgive me?For telling your Daddy to go, to goOh my dear baby boyWill you believe me?Believe me?One day when you're older and know, and knowOne day when you're older and know
