we let her down lyrics

Her mother, her father
Never showed her any affection at all
I wonder if it hurts her now
now that it's too late they call

We let her down
It's true
We let her down
It's true

I told her I loved her
It's easy to say what you want to believe
I told her I'd be there
and now that it's too late I see

We let her down
It's true
We let her down
Let her down
Let her down
We let her down
Let her down

So helpless, pretending
Hoping that somehow somebody would see
So desperate for someone
I guess that she thought that someone was me

I let her down
It's true
Let her down
We let her down
Let her down

Look at her, look through her eyes
Close to the hurt and the pain
I hope now she's somewhere
Where they'll never hurt her again
