My mum has gone away,
I wish she'd never left,
If she had stayed a little longer
This pain she would prevent
This pain inside my heart,
This pain inside my head,
She'd take me in her loving arms
And put a smile back there instead
I miss my mothers smile,
I miss my mothers skin,
But most of all I miss her warmth
and the love she bore within
The love she had for me,
my dad and brother too,
My mum is my best friend,
It's tough to struggle through
To struggle through this loss,
To grasp she isn't there,
I sit and look around the house
And feel her everywhere
I feel her in the walls,
In every single room,
The cut is just too deep
when I realize it's not true
My mum has gone away,
And no one can replace
Her support, her charm, her joy
Gone to their final resting space
My mum has gone away
And part of me's gone too
My mum is my best friend,
What am I now to do?
My best to make her proud,
My best to remain strong,
To keep her memory vibrant,
and live on and on and on
My mum has gone away.
I'll think of her each day.
Smiling, laughing, joking
mum and I, us two.
Mummy you've gone away
I wish it wasn't true
I hope you always know
just how much that I love you.
