MY MOTHER, MY FRIEND

I'VE TRIED TO COME
TO SOME CONCLUSION
YET ALL I'VE FOUND
IS AN INTRUSION
ON YOUR LIFE
AND MINE TOO
THOUGH THERE WAS NOTHING
I COULD DO
I STOOD BY YOUR SIDE
UNTIL THE END
FOR YOU WERE MY MOTHER
AS WELL AS MY FRIEND
I LOVE YOU MOM
SEALED WITH A KISS
NOW THAT YOU'RE GONE
I WILL DEEPLY MISS
YOUR BEAUTIFUL FACE
YOUR WIT, YOUR STYLE
MOST OF ALL
THAT PRECIOUS SMILE
IT WAS HARD TO WATCH
YOU SLIP AWAY
EACH NIGHT BEFORE I SLEEP
I'LL PRAY
THAT HEAVEN IS
WHERE YOU WILL BE
DAY AND NIGHT WATCHIN'
OVER ME
GOODBYE MY FRIEND
IT'S HARD TO SAY
BUT WE WILL MEET
AGAIN SOME DAY...
