Sweet Mother Mary Lyrics

So many years have past

Turns out the memories

Weren't built to last

So I'll be on my way

Did you ever read the letters

I sent from time to time

Longing for contact, but never to find

A place to hang my heart, I'll leave it all behind

Something, somewhere

Somewhere in time

Someplace to go to

Someplace, to find

Mother, you've lost your sons

Mother, where have you gone

The future bright

As far as I can see

The future what

Will become of me

The memories, will they all fade

Shades of grey, till it all burns away

Picture in hand, to remind me the way

Of how, not to do it, simply stay

This game, to be played

Into the winters, warm embrace

Mother, you've lost your sons

Mother, where have you gone

I often wonder if

You think about me
