We had a visitor while you were away
Unwelcome as he was, he came in one day.
He sat down quietly at your mother's side.
She left with him sometime in the night.
She's gone.
You know how much she loved you son.
She had no fear of death.
She went on peacefully.
She just closed her eyes & drifted off to sleep.
She's gone. She's gone.
You know how much she loved you son.
Let's walk on over there & lay a rose upon her grave.
She's gone. She's gone.
You know how much she loved you, son.
