| Sister Mary, can you tell me, is there any news?
|
| Sister Mary, I’ve been praying, what else can I do?
|
| She’s been gone, seems so long, I want to have her home
|
| Sister Mary, reassure me, help me to go on
|
| Tell me, don’t try to spare me pain
|
| Will she be coming home again?
|
| Sister, I feel so afraid
|
| All my life I cared so much for her
|
| All my life is nothing if I’m left without her
|
| Tell me, why I just can’t let her go
|
| Oh, how I love her, oh, how I miss her
|
| Mister Thompson, now she’s sleeping, the doctor’s been today
|
| There seems to be no change in her, that’s all he had to say
|
| But late last night she spoke to me, she said she loves me so
|
| Mister Thompson, don’t you worry, she’ll soon be well, I know
|
| Tell me, don’t try to spare me pain
|
| Will she be coming home again?
|
| Sister, I feel so afraid
|
| All my life I cared so much for her
|
| All my life is nothing if I’m left without her
|
| Tell me, why I just can’t let her go
|
| Oh, how I love her, oh, how I miss her
|
| Mister Thompson, I’m sorry
|
| Please, don’t cry, don’t cry, please, don’t cry |
