I found a picture of your mother in a little Austin bar
I wonder if she'll mention me to you
Her favorite red sweater, and the shape of a heart
Everything she'll tell you is true
But I never told her goodbye
'Cause I always thought there'd be time
I can't make it right
So turn out the light
and Hailey, good night
I didn't leave a number, but I dropped her a line
I told her I'd be safe with a friend
I talked to her brother a couple of times
But I never heard from her again
But in my dreams I can trace
Every line I drew on her face
I can't make it right
So turn out the light
and Hailey, good night
And every time I see a rattle
Girly pink or baby blue
Well, I miss you
The little girl I never knew
I finally saw your picture from a mutual friend
You've got your mother's old smile
I was there at the beginning, now I've seen the end
Girl, you're a beautiful child
And as I walk down the line
You're never far from my mind
I can't make it right
So turn out the light
and Hailey, good night
