Mom the tears are showing in your face and your steps are slowing with the time

Since daddy's gone away to live in heaven

I know you're lonesome for him I see heaven on your mind

Now the years have took away the roses that were in your cheeks not long ago

And time has wrapped your lovely hair in silver

But I still see you mom like you were years ago



Each day you look more lovely like an angel and soon you'll go to be with them I know

God loaned us part of heaven for a mama

As I look back and see you like you were years ago

Now the years have took...

I'll always see you mom like you were years ago
