I wasn't ready
Let me step into the warmth of your arms,
Let me bask in the sunshine of your smile,
Let me hold you a moment longer,
Oh dearest mother of mine.
Let me tell you all my woes
Let me hear you reassuringly say
That every single little thing is going to be okay.
But we both know that can't happen now
Because permanent is the time you went away.
I miss you sneaking up on me when I cry,
I wasn't ready to say goodbye.
