Jacob's Dream
Sarah Williams

How many times must I feel this way?
The fool who never learns
Selfish pleasures override my thoughts
Give that wheel just one more turn
Drunken stupidity rules my mind 
And things aren´t what they seem
How many times must I feel this way? 
I wish it were all a dream, a dream 

I´m sorry about your sorrow 
I´m sorry about your pain 
If I could turn back the hands of time 
I´d make things new again 
I´m sorry about your anger 
I´m sorry about your rage 
If I could do one thing in this world 
I´d make her live again 

Once, such a happy young man 
Now a shell of broken dreams 
Taken from me all that I am 
Myself the only one to blame 
My heart is filled with the blood of guilt 
But nothing can I say 
I see the anger in everyone's eyes 
For the life I´ve taken away 

I´m sorry about your sorrow 
I´m sorry about your pain 
If I could turn back the hands of time 
I´d make things new again 
I´m sorry about your anger 
I´m sorry about your rage 
If I could do one thing in this world 
I´d make her live again 

A friend they´ve lost, forever gone 
Not a chance to say goodbye 
Forever embedded in their thoughts 
"Why did she have to die?" 
The life I´ve taken burns inside me 
Always there to remind 
This truth I face, it is so hard 
I can never repay this crime 

I´m sorry about your sorrow 
I´m sorry about your pain 
If I could turn back the hands of time 
I´d make things new again 
I´m sorry about your anger 
I´m sorry about your rage 
If I could do one thing in this world 
I´d make her live again 
Live again 

There´re no excuses for what I´ve done 
There are no words that can change the past
Oh, but I, I can´t deny 
I´ve killed an angel 
While the whiskey demon burned my soul 
I took the life of Sarah Williams 
Now I stand and face this bitter hell
Oh, Sarah Williams, if you could hear 
Would you forgive me?
