Matt Monro - For Mama

Текст песни

She said, my son I beg of you
I have a wish that must come true
The last thing you can do for Mama
Please promise me that you will stay
And take my place while I’m away
And give the children love each day
I had to cry, what could I say
How hard I tried to find a word
I prayed she would not see me cry
So much to say that should be heard
But only time to say goodbye to Mama
They say in time you will forget
Yet still today my eyes are wet
I tell myself to smile for Mama
Now soon they’ll be another spring
And I will start remembring
The way she loved to har us sing
Her favorite song, Ave Maria
Ave Maria
The children have all grown up now
I kept my promise to Mama
I cannot guide them anymore
I’ve done my best for Mama
Ave Maria
Still this seems so very small
So very small
For Mama
