How Can I Help You Say Goodbye? |
Through the back window of a '59 wagon |
I watched my best friend Jamie slippin' further away |
I kept on waving 'till I couldn’t see her |
And through my tears, I asked again why we couldn’t stay |
Mama whispered softly, Time will ease your pain |
Life’s about changing, nothing ever stays the same |
And she said, How can I help you to say goodbye? |
It’s OK to hurt, and it’s OK to cry |
Come, let me hold you and I will try |
How can I help you to say goodbye? |
I sat on our bed, he packed his suitcase |
I held a picture of our wedding day |
His hands were trembling, we both were crying |
He kissed me gently and then he quickly walked away |
I called up Mama, she said, Time will ease your pain |
Life’s about changing, nothing ever stays the same |
And she said, How can I help you to say goodbye? |
It’s OK to hurt, and it’s OK to cry |
Come, let me hold you and I will try |
How can I help you to say goodbye? |
Sitting with Mama alone in her bedroom |
She opened her eyes, and then squeezed my hand |
She said, I have to go now, my time here is over |
And with her final word, she tried to help me understand |
Mama whispered softly, Time will ease your pain |
Life’s about changing, nothing ever stays the same |
And she said, How can I help you to say goodbye? |
It’s OK to hurt, and it’s OK to cry |
Come, let me hold you and I will try |
How can I help you to say goodbye? |
How can I help you to say goodbye? |
