| See, when you’re young there’s a connection
|
| From a mother to a son
|
| And that mother, she’s the light
|
| And she carries you on
|
| She’ll pick you up
|
| And she’ll keep you clean
|
| She’ll show you the love
|
| You so desperately need
|
| So at no point do you think
|
| She could ever leave
|
| She’s the constant, she’s the mother
|
| She’s all that we need
|
| So imagine my pain
|
| I was only fourteen
|
| And I was told that my mother
|
| Was no longer here
|
| You parted the clouds and shone down on me
|
| Kept me from feeling so incomplete
|
| But now I feel lost, searching always
|
| For that missing light in the darkest of days
|
| Because love’s what you taught
|
| And love’s what we learned
|
| But it’s so hard to feel loved
|
| When you’re not around
|
| This house it feels empty
|
| My father’s lost for words
|
| He’s desperately trying
|
| But can’t make a sound (I'm so sorry)
|
| Bring her back to me, bring her back
|
| I can’t eat, I can’t sleep
|
| I can’t feel, I can’t breathe
|
| Bring her back to me, bring her back
|
| I can’t eat, I can’t sleep
|
| I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe
|
| I sometimes talk to the distorted reflection
|
| In the bottom of my empty glass
|
| There’s only one question I’ll ever ask (Will I see you again?)
|
| But I’m sure the answer will come as no surprise
|
| As I stare at myself eye-to-eye
|
| And whisper, whisper the words
|
| «Why'd she have to die?»
|
| Why? |
| Why did you have to die?
|
| Bring her back to me, bring her back
|
| I can’t eat, I can’t sleep
|
| I can’t feel, I can’t breathe
|
| Bring her back to me, bring her back
|
| I can’t keep going on
|
| I just wish I could see you again |
