Lyrics
Dear mother
it's been so long
since I had to say goodbye
they say time flies
but I must say
sometimes is just crawled by
but now I have a family of my own
I can see you in these eyes
I still think about you everyday
I hope that comes as no surprise
how I would love to see you now
what I wouldn't give
but life did not bend to my wishes
and so I had to learn to live
Dear mother
I know I'm not the only one
who had someone taken away too young
still, that doesn't make it feel alright
to not have had you then
and still not have you now
but now I hold 'em every cold in my arms
I know that someone left to carry on
still I would love to see you now
what I wouldn't give
but life did not bend to my wishes
and so I have to learn to live
how I would love to see you now
what I wouldn't give
but life does not bend to our wishes
and so we have to learn to live
and so we have to learn to live
