A Tragedy
Oh mother my mother
It hurts so bad
Oh mother my mother
This pain that I have
You tore out my heart
In this scandal you took part
Oh mother my mother
In fear with us you ran
Oh mother my mother
Through it all I held your hand
From place to place we were moving
But we didn’t question what you were doing
Oh mother my mother
I found her the perfect one for me
Oh mother my mother
Why won’t you let me be happy?
The warmth of her embrace
The joy I see in her face
Oh mother my mother
Once you were my world
Oh mother my mother
Now things start to unfold
Things were tough but we had you
Now it’s more than tough what did you do?
Oh mother my mother
The family once was close
Oh mother my mother
How the chasm grows
You ignored us and then you blamed us
Now you cry when we aren’t there
Oh mother my mother
The key to my heart you no longer hold
Oh mother my mother
A tragedy -- our love grows cold
