You left me reeling
In the empty feeling
Of a mothers love
Supposed to be felt from far above

Yet you didn’t die
You didn’t fly
You left me and my sister
Struggling to get by

So when I wake up in the middle of the night
Wanting to be comforted by my mother
Wanting to be able to see my brother
I have to tell myself that you are gone

Though dad is great
He is not enough
To fill that empty feeling
You left in my heart
