Am I brave or just a child?
Feels like in breaking up inside
To lose her makes me feel such pain
I’ll never see my mother’s eyes again
I go to the places that we used to run
When I was five and we had such fun
Now they seem cold with their solemn trees
You wrapped the sunshine all around me
That thought, its makes me cry. That thought, it makes me cry
I wonder why, you had to leave me
So young and naive, still needing protecting
The house is quiet; I swear I still hear you singing
Hush baby don’t you cry, mama’ll sing you a lullaby.
Winter showers, drumming on the roof
You’d sing along and my soul would soothe
Now it sounds empty as I sit out in the rain
I’ll never hear my mother’s voice again
I look at pictures of you, and I see me
Laughing proud, how you used to be
But there will be no more pictures of your smile
I might see you again, but it won't be a while
That thought, its makes me cry. That thought, it makes me cry
I wonder why, you had to leave me
So young and naive, still needing protecting
The house is quiet; I swear I still hear you singing
Hush baby don’t you cry, mama’ll sing you a lullaby.
Am I brave or just a child?
Feels like I’ve broken up inside
To lose her makes me feel such pain
I’ll never see my mother’s eyes again
