Night Of Remorse

I had a few drinks, on that late night."Can I call you a cab?" asked the bartender,"No," I said "I'm not drunk, not quite."
I stumbled out the door and hopped in my car,
I swerved on the freeway, away from the bar.
You entered the freeway toward home from a friends,Carefully driving in that lovely Benz.
I didn't see it coming, I should have seen it there,
The path that was before me was no longer there.
I weaved in and out of all of the lanes,I lost all my judgment then the silence came.
My life changed in an instant and your life was gone,I knew it was over, it didn't take long.
I was rushed to the hospital and it became clear,
I laid in the ambulance and started to tear.
Where did my life go? I couldn't tell,I decided that night that I would not dwell.So I stand here before you on this clear day,I'd like to trade places, I wish there was a way.
I wish you could walk, I wish you could smile,
I wish you could be here and give birth to your child.Your life was taken by my mistake,When I think of you, I start to ache,I have remorse for what I've done,I've been to A.A. meetings, I haven't missed one.
I don't live for myself I live in your place,
I stand here now only by Gods grace.Why it was you, I don't know,There are so many feelings that I cannot show.I'm sorry for that night, I'm sorry for tomorrow,But most of all I'm sorry for the sorrow.
I will think of you each and every day,I guess "I'm sorry," is all I wanted to say.
Tragical
