The other danger of drinking. It is sad, but it happened.
Who would ever think it could happen to them. My friend didn't think so.....but it did.



I am sorry Mom
I lied to you
I had you in my palm
I didn't have a clue

I've lied so much
Not only about me
But my friends and such
I knew you would disagree

I know you love me
You want to keep me safe
I couldn't let myself see
Partying was so unsafe

We've had a few beers
Here on this dark street
Your voice echoes in my ears
As he gets in the driver's seat

I know the car is moving
I barely can see a thing
I think I am weeping
I'm holding on by a string

We are at the dock
His laughter, now I hear
I know it's after eleven o'clock
Everything else is unclear

I don't know how to stop it
He just wants to hurt me
He's doesn't care the least bit
Someone please help me!

Mom, I am sorry I lied
I didn't drink and drive
Ignorance I can't deny
I just took a little ride

You were right
I am young and naive
I did it in spite
I just didn't believe

I will never again drink
I ignored the danger
I never took time to think
He was a friend, not a stranger

I know you still love me
Your touch gentle as I cry
Without a word I know you see
Mom, I am sorry I lied
