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

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

Well, you've got your father's hair,
And you've got your father's nose,
But you got my soul
SADLY, BEAUTIFUL

Form 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
