I Went to See Your Mother

I went to see your mother
One cool October day
I did most of the talking
At least it seemed that way

I told her that I loved you
And often held you in my arms
Then I made some silly promise
That always I would keep you from harm

I went to see your mother
Under where the old oaks grow
I told her we were married
Just in case she didn't know

Then I just had to laugh
I really don't know why
It was just me and your mother
Under that gray October sky

I went to see your mother
Near her friends and family
She said her love was deep within you
And that your love was safe with me

I wondered how she knew
I decided not to ask
Then I said goodbye
But I told her I'd be coming back

I went to see your mother
I went to see your mother
