| Oh Mother dear
|
| What a night this has been
|
| I awoke in the light of a vision in white
|
| The prettiest girl that I have ever seen
|
| Lately my love, said the lady in white
|
| I have watched from afar, but love draws me near
|
| Now take my hand, hold tight, Mother dear
|
| Do you know what this could mean, Mother dear?
|
| Was it just another dream… in the night?
|
| Mother dear, on that same silver night Saw a figure in black by the lady in
|
| white
|
| He said his name was death, was he right?
|
| Do you know what this could mean, Mother dear?
|
| Was it just another dream… in the night?
|
| Do you know what this could mean, Mother dear?
|
| Was it just another dream… in the night?
|
| Mother dear, what a night this has been
|
| It’s so cold by your side, no don’t cry, can’t you see?
|
| Won’t you listen to me please, Mother dear
|
| Was it just another dream, Mother dear? |
