Mama... Songtext / Lyric

She came up from the country with a smile for everyone

She left her blue horizon just to find another home

A lonely girl who'd traveled many days

A lonely heart that could not find a way.



And she said, "Mama, it's a hard life now you're gone

Mama, it's so hard to carry on

And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all

You used to make it all so very clear

That life must go on though the end is near

Oh Mama, it's a sad and lonely life."



A misty morning rider she came wandering through the hills

A wanderin' soul appearin' over rainy windowsills

A loser in her heart, but in her face

A smile for everyone under God's grace.






And she said, "Mama, it's a hard life now you're gone

Mama, it's so hard to carry on

And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all

You used to make it all so very clear

That life must go on though the end is near

Oh Mama, it's a sad and lonely life."



Midnight maiden madness, what to search for in this place?

Gateway to the city, night sky shadows on her face

A lady lost in nowhere but her stare

Leaves the world, her life to start somewhere.



And she said, "Mama, it's a hard life now you're gone

Mama, it's so hard to carry on

And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all

You used to make it all so very clear

That life must go on though the end is near."



Mama, it's a hard life now you're gone

Mama, it's so hard to carry on

And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all

You used to make it all so very clear

That life must go on though the end is near...
