No Hands

Lyrics

Sliding away Playgrounds and climbing in trees Take to the sky in a swing Or jump in some leaves But the rain falls down It's casting a gloom Let it all end real soon Away, chase all these clouds away And mommy, come see me No hands, no hands Mommy, come watch me You're busy You're tired You're walking away But where have you gone? I'll keep a light on Decades have passed Now that I'm a mother I've found While pushing my child in a swing On the playground When she calls me "mom" I see myself, lonely, dragging around Away, chase all these feelings away And mommy, come see me No hands, no hands Mommy, come watch me You're busy You're tired You're looking away But where did you go? I'll keep the lights on, you know 'Cause walking away Is playing it safe And I've sure done my part To try not To pull at the strings of your heart So Mommy, come see me No hands, no hands Mother forgive me I'm sorry for all of the years slipped away 'Cause you did your best, I know I'll keep a light on I'll keep a light on I'll keep it waiting for us to come home Copyright 2009, All Rights Reserved Music & lyrics by Cheryl Foster
