I had a dream last night
That gave my heart a fright
I dreamt that someone had come and taken you
From me
When I woke in the morning light
My dream had been wrong
And these words were like a sweet song
To me
"Mama, the small hand's at eight
Get up or I'll be late
Please fix me something sweet and good
To eat now
For that bell in the yard won't wait
And neither does time"
These words rang like a sad rhyme
To me
With my eyes barely open
I pulled myself out of my warm bed
The night before had been a long one
And I could hardly hold up my head
But the sun always rises
And night fades away
Once more I'm grateful
To see a new day
That gave my heart a fright
I dreamt that someone had come and taken you
From me
When I woke in the morning light
My dream had been wrong
And these words were like a sweet song
To me
"Mama, the small hand's at eight
Get up or I'll be late
Please fix me something sweet and good
To eat now
For that bell in the yard won't wait
And neither does time"
These words rang like a sad rhyme
To me
With my eyes barely open
I pulled myself out of my warm bed
The night before had been a long one
And I could hardly hold up my head
But the sun always rises
And night fades away
Once more I'm grateful
To see a new day
