Sweeter Than the Flowers — текст песни (Bobby Bare)

(Ervin T. Rouse - Lois Mann - Murray Burns)

Just as far as I can remember
She`ll remain the rose of my heart
Mama took sick along in December
February brought us broken hearts.

The reason we`ve not called the family reunion
Is we knew that you wouldn`t be there
But now that we thought it all over mama
We know that the spirit is here.

No, no, I can`t forget the hours
You`re the only one mama and sweeter than the flowers
No, no, there`s no need to bother
To speak of you now would only hurt farther
Oh no mama, I`ll never forget you
And someday I`ll meet you up there.

--- Instrumental ---

No, no, I can`t forget the hours
You`re the only one mama and sweeter than the flowers
No, no, there`s no need to bother
To speak of you now would only hurt farther
Oh no mama, I`ll never forget you
And someday I`ll meet you up there...
