Mama Said Lyrics

Mama said you see what no one else sees
Mama said my baby's gonna go far
Mama said you stand tall as the trees
Mama said you're my shining star
Mama said I'll take you by the hand
Mama said together we'll make a stand
Said she saw a ring around the moon
Mama said her baby girl's the one that put it there

My soul is cryin' out, trying to remember it all
When you're an angel, will you fly down, save me when I call?

Murder of crows guard the old road
Troubadours line wires between poles
Mama said life is like a circle
We all endure the passing of souls
Mama said now go out and play awhile
Life was fun with nursery rhymes and games
Memories of joyous times make me smile
Bring back vision, feelings, places, old names

My soul is cryin' out, trying to remember it all
When you're an angel, will you fly down, save me when I call?
Hear her voice whisper in the night
"Together we can climb any hill"
Mama said everything will be alright
But comfort eludes me still

Mama said take your sister by the hand
Said remember I'm your biggest fan
Say your prayers, and take your brother too
Dry your eyes; I'll always be with you
