Letra de «Sweeter Than The Flowers»
Just as far as I can remember
She'll remain the rose of my heart
Mom took sick along in December
February brought us broken hearts.
The reason we've not called a family reunion We knew - she wouldn't be there But since we've thought it all over, Mama We know that your spirit is there.
Oh, no, I can't forget the hours You're the onliest one Mom and sweeter than the flowers Oh, no, there's no need to bother To speak of you now would only hurt Father.
Well, it looked so good to see us together But I had to look after Dad Oh, no, Mama, when I passed by your coffin I didn't want to remember you dead.
They all gathered 'round, I stared at their faces All heads were bowed mighty low But that was one time we all had to face it Though it hurt us so bad, you know.
Oh, no, I can't forget the hours You're the onliest one Mom and sweeter than the flowers Oh, no, there's no need to bother To speak of you now would only hurt Father.
Oh, no, Mama, we'll never forget you And someday we'll meet you up there.
