Deep need longing and aching
To be loved like a mother loves her baby
So sad to say good-bye to you
Never leave me here all alone
Chorus
And I miss you
And the love you gave to me
And I know you
Did the best while you were here
Your needs were deep
Longing and aching
To be loved
Like a mother loves her baby
Deep need longing and aching to be held
Like a mother holds her baby
So hard to say goodbye to you
Please don't leave me here all alone
Bridge
Now you have finally
Found your way home
Safe in his arms
Now your pain is gone
But until you can hold me
Again my sweet mother
I'll take comfort down here
