Dark Child

My little blonde haired blue eyed boy
One day you’ll grow up and be distressed
One day you’ll grow up and regret everything
I’ve set up out for you
My only dear long wasteful son
One day you’ll wonder what you’ve become
One day all this could be yours
If you only had the will to outlive you mother and I
Looking in from the outside
Couldn’t see it was true
Oh my dear dark child
I’ve been waiting for you
Looking in from the outside
Couldn’t see it was true
You’ve been given too much time
Oh my darling I’ve been waiting for you
Waiting for you
Waiting for you
Waiting for you
Although the news came as no surprise
I always hoped I’d never have to bury a child
