Sometimes I wonder if she's looking back Through the thin veil of all our actions to think about that life I knew one day pain would come My dear sweet mother I lost my life today With the face of all my past They sent an angel on its way We knew her time was near and she'd be going home I knew one day pain would come My dear sweet mother I lost my life today With the face of all my past
And faith for us to bear I received a gift, the strange unknown Hiding the fear whose name was a danger to all For the time that it takes Still I feel the nights she cried Was so sick and tired we knew Her lover will take her back someday Of this we were certain d**h would come as nothing new Silent for us to bear Never knew it was so precious
