She Calls Me Daniel
We stand and hold each other close
As we watch the sun come up
She can't remember who I am
She just knows that we're in love
The year was nineteen sixty four
When we first got the news
And the death of our son Daniel
Was more than she could bear to lose
Oh the doctor said her minds just like
A window made of glass
That just might shatter anytime
From the pain within her past
So I pretend to be two people
So she won't know her son has died
And I hope she never comes to know
How many years I've had to lie
Our Daniel he was a hero
He died fighting in that war
Everyday when I come home from work
She things it's Daniel walking through that door
Sometimes it's me sometimes it's not
She just doesn't know what's real
So when my Mary calls me Daniel
I make believe that he's still here
Oh the doctor said her minds just like
A window made of glass
That just might shatter anytime
From the pain within her past
So I pretend to be two people
So she won't know her son has died
And I hope she never comes to know
How many years I've had to lie
She just calls me Daniel
That's who I've been since Daniel died
As we watch the sun come up
She can't remember who I am
She just knows that we're in love
The year was nineteen sixty four
When we first got the news
And the death of our son Daniel
Was more than she could bear to lose
Oh the doctor said her minds just like
A window made of glass
That just might shatter anytime
From the pain within her past
So I pretend to be two people
So she won't know her son has died
And I hope she never comes to know
How many years I've had to lie
Our Daniel he was a hero
He died fighting in that war
Everyday when I come home from work
She things it's Daniel walking through that door
Sometimes it's me sometimes it's not
She just doesn't know what's real
So when my Mary calls me Daniel
I make believe that he's still here
Oh the doctor said her minds just like
A window made of glass
That just might shatter anytime
From the pain within her past
So I pretend to be two people
So she won't know her son has died
And I hope she never comes to know
How many years I've had to lie
She just calls me Daniel
That's who I've been since Daniel died
