As My Mother Lay Lying |
As my mother lay lying in the nursing home bed |
I paid strict attention to the things she said |
As my mother lay lying I learned |
Old dreams that bothered me |
Since I was little |
I looked at her and in a flash I saw the riddle |
As my mother lay lying I learned |
As my mother lie dying I learned some more |
Now she’s sleeping in the sun |
Breaking free of earthly chains one by one |
As my mother lay lying I learned |
Now just bones and silver hair |
My restless twisting mother sleeping there |
As my mother lay lying I learned |
As my mother lie dying I learned some more |
Now comes the time for one final cry |
Now comes the time to say goodbye |
As my mother lay lying I learned |
As my mother lie dying I learned some more |
