lyrics

VERSE 1
Momma, your time is through.
And no one left in my world could hold a candle next to you.
Momma, I remember everything you say.
You asked me not to grieve but here I am grieving anyway.
Momma, Momma!

CHORUS
Sometimes it seems that life is so, so long.
But with all that you meant to me, one day I blinked and you were gone.
Sometimes it seems that life will never end.
But now that you're gone I know that you weren't just mom, you were my friend.


VERSE 2
Momma, I learned so much from you I'll never forget.
But with all the things you taught me you never taught me how to get over this.
Momma, I remember everything you say.
You asked me not to grieve but here I am grieving anyway.
Momma, Momma!

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE
Waves crash
Life flies by
Time ticks and passes
Until all that's left is this bag full of ashes
Earth spins
Babies cry
Just as sure as taxes
Now all that's left
is this bowl full of ashes
REPEAT CHORUS fade out
