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 cry. 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'd cry she'd wipe my tears And just like magic when I'd fall 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
