Mother's Song

We all love a little bit too hard We all cry a little bit too loud And on the day we watched the trains leave, Everyone stood up and waved We all were a little bit too proud We all learned to pray tonight, my darlin' 'Cause we all felt a chill in the air And the winter's come too soon But the sunlight is in your room And I know at least you're warm over there When you comin' home, my darlin'? I don't mind the cold, but the hours drag too long You come on home, now, darlin' I've been here by the phone We miss you so We all tried to smile, today, but baby They all heard me call your name out loud And all I ever asked was guidance, all ever heard was silence Thought my knees would never leave this ground When you comin' home, my darlin'? I don't mind the cold But the days are quiet, now You come on home, now, darlin' We're all alone I loved you so
