Ghost Of Past Regrets

from Steel Bridge Songs Vol. 10 by Holiday Music Motel

/

lyrics

There’s a woman on the bridge in her bathrobe
Tears streaming down her cheeks
She just threw away her cell phone
She can never call me
She’s run away from her beautiful home, broken hearts, and unpaid debts
Leavin’ her kids and man alone
With the ghosts of past regrets

Gambled it away at the bottom of a bottle
Car’s gonna be repossessed
She could never be a perfect role model
But she always gave her best
And was left with the rest

Everyone’s talking, no one’s stopping
We can’t stop watching as she hits the edge
She starts falling, we hear her calling
“I’m sorry my babies, but I can’t be there”

Everyone says that bridge is haunted
When the fog rolls in
You can see her in her bathrobe
This can never happen again
Her children cry for their mother
Throwing flowers off the bridge
They’re still learning how to love her
And trying to forgive

Gambled it away at the bottom of a bottle
Car’s gonna be repossessed
She could never be a perfect role model
But she always gave her best
And was left with the rest

Everyone’s talking, no one’s stopping
We can’t stop watching as she hits the edge
She starts falling, we hear her calling
“I’m sorry my babies, I can’t be there
I’m sorry
I can’t be there
I’m sorry my babies”
