Mother’s day – to Rose on parting
Its all different, you got your life, I’ve got mine
we’ve been together a long time
I can’t claim to understand how
the years have come to wash us away.
You’ve got your feelings and I’ve got mine
I loved you, Baby, and it sure was fine
and nothing coming, nothing but death
can wash this from my mind
But these turning tides of our lives are running
it brings pain and concern for our son and
every moment’s another one gone
and I feel it all slipping away.
You’ll take you lovers and you’ll find your way
and your hidden dreams will find the light of day
and we’ll never know all the reasons
that our love…turned out this way.
So I’m going to leave, and remember your face
and all the years of love, on my heart you traced
it makes me want to cry to think
that you might think it all a waste
The full moon of our new life’s rising
and we’re bound to part on this future horizon
so go, my love, … go
and remember me, … when you can.
