Lyrics

I'm sorry son, so sorry girls
We could have made a better world
We could have left a few more trees
And find a shelter under their leaves

I'm sorry son, so sorry girls
I've felt ashamed for so many years
We should have built a better place
Where there's no need to hide looking for shade

Where the sun doesn't burn
Where the rain doesn't kill
Where there's snow in winter
On the top of the hill

Where we used to play
When we were five or six
Where we used to play
When we were kids

Where you could have met
On saturday evening
With all your friends
Far from the streets

Far from the view
Of sad looking strangers
Staring at you
Fearing your anger

And there's nothing you can do now
nothing you can change
You can't even go out
before the blue sky turns orange

You've got to make it right
If there's still something to save
At least you have to try
Learning from our mistakes

I'm sorry son
So sorry girls
We could have left
A better world
