Dear Mother
Words and Music by Sandra Lambert ©2017 SOCAN
There’s a house across the water with a white picket fence
And it brings back sweet memories to me
I could see my mama there in her old rockin chair
Dear lord why’d you take her from me
You were one of a kind dear mother of mine
With a heart that’s made of pure gold
Why’d you have to go and leave I’ll never know
Now you’re an angel in heavens divine
There’s a place deep in my heart
Where I hold you close to me and sometimes my tears fall like rain
How I wish you were still here in that old rockin chair
To hold me in your arms one more time
Chorus
