I Use To Have fun

I use to have fun until I turned five
Thats when I started to realize you were not always there
I would hear mom crying up late at night
I didnt know what to do I was to little at the time.

I use to have fun until I turned ten
Thats when mom told me what you had done
I didn't know how to react since I was so young.

I use to have fun until i turned thirteen
When mom got sick and you weren't there.
My brother, your son came to help, but that wasn't enough
I still was too young
I had to comfort my sister, your daughter
I could not shed a tear
For then I would not be brave.

I use to have fun until I turned fifteen
I was so grown up I couldn't believe
You went back to work and sometimes not come home
Then mom got sick again, but this time I was all alone.
My sister your daughter left to a friends
I was so scared
I never want that again as long as I live.

I use to have fun...
