Array ( [sid] => 117901 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => MAMA PLEASE DONT CRY [time] => 2006-04-07 15:26:24 [hometext] => A mother should never have to loose a child to drugs a good friend of mine has lost two [bodytext] => Mama please don’t cry

She’s sitting in her rocking chair her hair has now turned grey
She looks off in the distance and seems so far away
Mama can you hear me mama please don’t cry
I didn’t mean to leave you I didn’t want to die
They said the drugs wouldn’t hurt me only make me high
I should have said no thank you I do not want to try
Shadows from the past dance upon her wall
The grief the pain the sorrow I know she’s felt it all
Her life it had been shattered like a broken window pane
Tears have stained her lovely face yet her beauty has remained
Through the years the candle burned in the window every night
I’m here to blow the candle out and take you home tonight
Mama can you see me mama please don’t cry
God is waiting for us in his mansion in the sky

Mama please don’t cry

She’s sitting in her rocking chair her hair has now turned grey
She looks off in the distance and seems so far away
Mama can you hear me mama please don’t cry
I didn’t mean to leave you I didn’t want to die
They said the drugs wouldn’t hurt me only make me high
I should have said no thank you I do not want to try
Shadows from the past dance upon her wall
The grief the pain the sorrow I know she’s felt it all
Her life it had been shattered like a broken window pane
Tears have stained her lovely face yet her beauty has remained
Through the years the candle burned in the window every night
I’m here to blow the candle out and take you home tonight
Mama can you see me mama please don’t cry
God is waiting for us in his mansion in the sky
