Dear Mother

I heard your sound of silence
Like a whisper in the breeze
crumbled was my heart inside
When I realized what I'd seen
And In that moment I knew
I missed my last chance
To say goodbye to you

Now I'm trapped in my head
With guilt painted on my face
Full of words I wish Id said
Through all these wasted days
My heart has never
felt so broken

God can you tell me why,
You took her away,
from me that night?

I
Lie awake
With so much pain
The sleeps just not the same
I embrace the waves
I embrace the truth
Dear Mother
If only
You knew

I heard your sound of silence
Like a whisper in the breeze
crumbled was my heart inside
When I realized what I'd seen
And In that moment I knew
I missed my last chance
To tell you I love you

I
Lie awake
With so much pain
The sleeps just not the same
I embrace the waves
I embrace the truth
Dear Mother
If only
You knew

I lie awake in a constant state of pain
I never thought that it would end this way
I heard your voice in my dreams
Why won't you come back to me
Dear mother if only you knew

God can you tell me why?
You took her away
From me that night

I know these words
might not be
What you thought you'd hear
An angry voice
Full of devastation

When you came to me
One night in my dreams
I know you were just telling me
Stay strong

I can't help but wonder
What if I had answered
What if I had taken the time
I can't help but think
What if I had been there
Tell me
Could you have survived?

I think back to the times
You smiled, laughed and cried
I know you didn't understand
The meaning of your life
I know in your head
It was a constant fight
I can't imagine
What you went through every night
I just want you to know
I hope you understand
That Ive loved you every second
And I won't forget
All the things you've done
And everything that's you
Dear mother, if only
You knew
