From the very first day 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      Well baby needs a brand new pair of eyes   'cause the ones that you got now see only goodbyes   I had no chance at all, to let you know   you're so sadly beautiful   you're so sadly beautiful   you're so sadly, oh so sadly, beautiful      and you got your father's hair   and you got your father's nose   and you got my song      sadly beautiful   you're so sadly beautiful   you're so sadly, oh so sadly beautiful      From the very last time you waved and honked your horn   to the 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   You left me sadly, oh so sadly, beautiful   beautiful   beautiful   oh beautiful...      beautiful.
