This song was written for my Mother and has been released in different versions on
earlier tapes, and has been very well recieved, That is why it was re-recorded and
Included on this project.This song was so personal I couldn't sing it for quite awhile
after it was written. I still choke up when I sing it.
1. In my childhood memory
Mamma would come to me
And say it's beddy bye time of the night
She's kiss my cheek so sweet
Hum a tune and tuck the sheet
And always said as she turned out the light
Cho:
I'll see you in the morning, I love you
Say your prayers and close your peepers tight
I'll see you in the morning, I love you
That's how Mom always said goodnight
Tag:
That's how she always said goodnight
2. I get home much as I can
Feel the touch of Mamma's hand
She tells me that I'm living much too fast
Lying here in my old bed
Precious memories flood my head
And Mom peeks in and says these words at last
3. Oh so many years have passed
And a fortune I have massed
But I'd trade it all for what I'm losing now
We've just said our good byes
And before she closed her eyes
I know that what she said is true somehow
