[Verse 1]
From the very first day that you were born
To the very last time you waved and honked your horn
I had no chance at all, to watch you grow
Up so sadly, beautiful
Up so sadly, beautiful

[Verse 2]
Baby needs a brand new pair of eyes
Cause the ones you got now, see only good-byes
I had no chance at all, to let you know
Oh so sadly, beautiful
Oh so sadly, beautiful

[Verse 3]
Well, you've got your father's hair
And you've got your father's nose
But you got my soul
Sadly, beautiful

[Verse 4]
From the very last time you waved and honked the horn
To a face that turned away, pale and worn
I had no chance at all, to let you know
You left me sadly, beautiful
You left me sadly, beautiful
Oh sadly, beautiful
So sadly, beautiful
