Learn to Live

Dear mother It's been so long Since I had to say goodbye They say time flies But I must say Sometimes is just crawled by But now I have a family of my own I can see you in these eyes I still think about you everyday I hope that comes as no surprise How I would love to see you now What I wouldn't give But life did not bend to my wishes And so I had to learn to live Dear mother I know I'm not the only one Who had someone taken away too young Still, that doesn't make it feel alright To not have had you then And still not have you now But now I hold 'em every cold in my arms I know that someone left to carry on Still I would love to see you now What I wouldn't give But life did not bend to my wishes And so I have to learn to live How I would love to see you now What I wouldn't give But life does not bend to our wishes And so we have to learn to live And so we have to learn to live
