No I would not give you false hope On this strange and mournful day But the mother and child reunion Is only a motion away
Oh little darling of mine, I can't for the life of me Remember a sadder day, I know they say to let it be But it just don't work out that way In the course of a lifetime runs over and over again
(repeat chorus)
Oh little darling of mine, I just can't believe it's so Though it seems strange to say I never been laid so low In such a mysterious way In the course of a lifetime runs over and over again
(repeat chorus)
But the mother and child reunion Is only a motion away But the mother and child reunion Is only a moment away (twice)
