Betty Lou Lane

1, 2, 3 When I was young sure daycare was fun But my favorite place where I'd like to go Was the little yellow house on Betty Lou Lane For the woman there that I loved so Mother of my mother Like a sister, like a brother A best friend and teacher All rolled into one I'll see you on the day I close my eyes and fly away To the castle in the clouds Where you'll be there waiting Arms open wide Just like on Betty Lou Lane With her musical voice And a lyrical love I cherished the simplest of things Like how she loved Lays, Harry Potter, and warm days At the playground across the way Mother of my mother Like a sister, like a brother A best friend and teacher All rolled into one I'll see you on the day I close my eyes and fly away To the castle in the clouds Where you'll be there waiting Arms open wide Just like on Betty Lou Lane On Betty Lou Lane I knew the first time my mom heard this song She'd probably shed a couple of tears This song's not for cryin' It's not about dyin' It's about all the love in our years Mother of my mother Like a sister, like a brother A best friend and teacher All rolled into one I'll see you on the day I close my eyes and fly away To the castle in the clouds Where you'll be there waiting Arms open wide Just like on Betty Lou Lane On Betty Lou Lane On Betty Lou Lane
