Every mother knows this, son, I have to let you go
Every year we inch on by, I hope your ceilings grow
All is love, but death above falls like a tonne of snow
And I do hope you know
Like a heart won't beat, you know I'm coming up
Like a soul can't leave, you know me from above
Like a heart won't beat, like a soul can't leave
Like a heart won't beat
Now again, my ancient friend, I steady your frame
Pictures of your tender years, I swear you nevеr aged
And I hold you in high regard, I think you do the samе
But I do hope you know
Like a heart won't beat, you know I'm coming up
Like a soul can't leave, you know me from above
Like a heart won't beat, like a soul can't leave
Like a heart won't beat
