I Hear You Sing Again
If I could only hear
My mother sing again
If I could close my eyes
And hear your voice as then
All the friends and family
Would sing along with me
And set your spirit free
In my heart I hear you sing again
Every note as natural as then
When I sing those songs
With family and friends
In my heart I hear you sing again
I know the troubled times
That turned your hair to gray
And all the tears and sorrows
Followed to your grave
But deep within the heart of hunger
There were always melodies
Passed from you to me
In my heart I hear you sing again
Every note as natural as then
When I sing those songs
For family and friends
In my heart I hear you sing again
And it's a long, long road I've come
Since my mother's songs were heard
But the child I can't outrun
Still hangs on every word
In my heart I hear you sing again
Every note as natural as then
When I sing those songs
With family and friends
In my heart I hear you sing again
My mother sing again
If I could close my eyes
And hear your voice as then
All the friends and family
Would sing along with me
And set your spirit free
In my heart I hear you sing again
Every note as natural as then
When I sing those songs
With family and friends
In my heart I hear you sing again
I know the troubled times
That turned your hair to gray
And all the tears and sorrows
Followed to your grave
But deep within the heart of hunger
There were always melodies
Passed from you to me
In my heart I hear you sing again
Every note as natural as then
When I sing those songs
For family and friends
In my heart I hear you sing again
And it's a long, long road I've come
Since my mother's songs were heard
But the child I can't outrun
Still hangs on every word
In my heart I hear you sing again
Every note as natural as then
When I sing those songs
With family and friends
In my heart I hear you sing again
