Requiem For My Mother

My brother's spirit came to me when I was weak He said, "My dear Mother, lay down to sleep Lay down, dear Mother, lay down and rest your tired head I know you're just sleeping, I know you are blessed" Lay down, dear Mother, lay down and rest your head I know you're sleeping, I know you are blessed I know, my dear Mother, just let yourself down to sleep For I'll miss you now to so many tears while I weep To lay down, dear Mother, lay down and rest your tired head I know you're just sleeping, I know you are blessed I know, dear Mother, you lay yourself down to sleep And I'll miss you now to so many tears while I weep
