Paul Simon - Mother and child reunion - live in new york / 2011 lyrics

No, I would not give you false hope On this strange and mournful day But the mother and child reunion Is only a motion away Oh, little darling of mine I can't for the life of me Remember a sadder day I know they say "let it be" But it just don't work out that way And the course of a lifetime runs Over and over again No, I would not give you false hope (no) On this strange and mournful day But the mother and child reunion Is only a motion away Oh, little darling of mine I just can't believe it's so Though it seems strange to say I never been laid so low In such a mysterious way And the course of a lifetime runs Over and over again But I would not give you false hope (no) On this strange and mournful day When the mother and child reunion Is only a motion away Oh, the mother and child reunion Is only a motion away Oh, the mother and child reunion Is only a moment away Oh, the mother and child reunion Is only a motion away Oh, the mother and child reunion Is only a moment away
