Lyrics:
Uyire, Unnai Naan Nambi Vanthane
Uravae, Unnai Naan Yengi Vaalvane

The hardest thing I ever had to tell my Amma
was that my marriage didn’t work
and she ain’t say a word
but I can tell by the silence on the other side of this phone
her mind was on the family’s reputation
cause us Thamil folks don’t get divorced
we just stick it out cause we fear the stigma
stick it out cause we stuck it out
but I can’t raise no child in a house with no love
and I can’t come to forgive myself
for the way I weighed you down and how I
led you down to the road I knew I won’t come
ya, even after everything we overcame
I think we both knew that this was the end of the
pretending pretending that we hadn’t fallen out of love forever ago
tried to work it out a million times
but knowin’ million and one was inevitable
I pray that one day you finally find it inside you to truly forgive me, I know
every decision I made in that summer will eat me alive til the end of my days
how can I ever regret it if we were just sacrifices for her to be born
Mimi couldn’t have a better mother
never would I want it any different
I’m must hoping we can take it easy on each other
for the sake of raising her with love

Uyire, Unnai Naan Nambi Vanthane
