Last Song for Mother |
| If I promise not to cry |
| Will you look me in the eye |
| And tell me that you’ve known me? |
| I was your late, your lonely child |
| I am enhanced by all you’ve shown me |
| And in my youth I did defy you to the end |
| Please forgive my wildness then |
| Even I can’t comprehend |
| What a mother’s love has lent |
| To all that is me |
| And will you sing this song again? |
| Let us sing it hand in hand |
| While the band is till playing |
| Before the light can loose your hand |
| Before I lose my voice again |
| Let us sing while it’s playing |
| And if I promise not to cry |
| Please look me in the eye |
| And say you’ve truly known me |
| 'Tis the sweet sound of goodbye |
| Amazing grace how sweet the sound |
| Between your soul and mine |
| If I promise not to cry |
| If I promise not to cry |
