When you feel like there's nowhere to run
And there's no one there to help you find your way
And those bone-chilling nights make you numb
And you wish you had a place to call your home
A safe haven to rest your weary mind, body and soul
Oh I can't believe
I'm sorry for not being there for you
When you needed me
I was made to protect you
Love you but I failed you
I worry about you every night
Not knowing where you are
I pray to god he keeps you safe
And brings you home to me someday
When your calls for help fall on deaf ears
And another disappears on the highway of tears
I don't know what to think it makes me cry
All the sisters and the mothers, daughters fight
Send ripples across the land tonight to give you a voice
Oh I can't believe
I'm sorry for not being there for you
When you needed me
I was made to protect you
Love you but I failed you
I worry about you every night
Not knowing where you are
I pray to God he keeps you safe
And brings you home to me someday
Bridge – Cree lyrics
Wechihenan ganaweniminan
Wechihenon nwematisinan
I'm sorry for not being there for you
When you needed me
I was made to protect you
Love you but I failed you
I worry about you every night
Not knowing where you are
I pray to God he keeps you safe
And brings you home to me someday
