Sweeter Than the Flowers |
| Just as far as I can remember |
| She’ll remain the rose of my heart |
| Mom took sick along in December |
| February brought us broken hearts |
| The reason we have not called a family reunion |
| We knew — she wouldn’t be there |
| But since we have thought it all over, Mama |
| We know that your spirit is there |
| Oh, no, I can’t forget the hours |
| You are the onliest one Mom and sweeter than the flowers |
| Oh, no, there is no need to bother |
| To speak of you now would only hurt Father |
| Well, it looked so good to see us together |
| But I had to look after Dad |
| Oh, no, Mama, when I passed by your coffin |
| I didn’t want to remember you dead |
| They all gathered around, I stared at their faces |
| All heads were bowed mighty low |
| But that was one time we all had to face it |
| Though it hurt us so bad, you know |
| Oh, no, Mama, we’ll never forget you |
| And someday we’ll meet you up there |
