Mama Said (Album Version)

歌詞

It was an early summer day But it seems like just yesterday When mama looked right in my face And told me she was going away If I could count all the tears that I cried I'd be empty and lost inside So I'll try to find a smile and hold my head up high Mama said, don't cry I'm going away up high Don't be afraid, be strong Just keep on holding on Mama said, don't cry Dry all the tears from your eyes Don't be afraid, be strong Just keep on holding on So young, but yet so wise So much beauty was in her eyes No one could quite explain just why she had to face the pain But when the day comes and hits your time only God knows the reason why She was my angel, my light, and my friend But one day we'll be together again But now that I know she has gone away, gone away, gone away There were days when I wish that I could run away, run away, run away And if I could, there would be another summer day, summer day, summer day when I could see my mother's face again 'Cause mama said, don't cry I'm goin away, way up high Don't be afraid, be strong Just keep on holding on 'Cause mama said, baby don't ya cry Just dry all the tears from your eyes Don't be afraid, be strong Just keep holding on And on and on and on and on and on Gone away, gone away , gone away Run away, run away, run away Summer day, summer day, summer day Will see my mother's face again....
