Now that you are laying me to rest, I'm asking God to give you the best. If you must lay a rose upon my chest, Lay it down with sweet tenderness. Let the pain pass on by, Cause I don't want to see you cry. Don't drownd yourself in sorrow, Because there is a better tomorrow. The best you are, And the best you gave. And yes,I'm carrying it to my grave. There is no love like a mothers love, And I will always feel it from up above. And on a special day we meet again, As if I was a child once again. So for me just carry on, As if I was never really gone. I know the pain is making tears fall like rain, you probally feel like you have been hit by a train. But,carry on.Because I love you.
