She was the love of mine And I held her hand in mine She has the mercy like the rising of the sea She opened my eyes to wonder In my wandering eyes I held her In this moment her soul became a part of me
Mother of mine You are the light that always shines Into the world you let me see
She was the love of mine and we We had the best of times We watched the ships sail At the fading of the day
She wore the color green And she talked of the things she'd seen Now only love remains When all has come and gone
Mother of mine You are the light that always shines Into the world you let me see
Mother of mine You are the light that always shines Now I carry you as you carried me
She was the love of mine And I held her hand in mine
