Mother - Isla Grant
If only I could see again
The twinkle in my mother's eyes
To hear again her gentle voice
And have her hold me when I cried.
If only she could be here now
To help me free my troubled mind
I wonder if my mother knows
Although I've tried, no peace I find.
It seems a hundred years ago
That when I cried she'd wiped my tears
And just like magic when I'd fallen
She'd be right there to calm my fears.
Oh mom if you could only see
The hurt and pain I'm going through
I must have cried ten million tears
Since the tears I cried when I lost you.
I know you're never far away
I almost feel you close to me
Oh, how I'd love to hold your hand
Your loving smile I'd love to see.
But in my heart you're still alive
I think about you everyday.
Oh, mother dear, why did you die
And leave me here so far away.
