《For Mama》歌词

[00:00:01] For Mama- Matt Monro

[00:00:12] She said my son I beg of you

[00:00:15] I have a wish that must come true

[00:00:18] The last thing you can do

[00:00:22] For mama

[00:00:29] Please promise me that you will stay

[00:00:32] And take my place while I'm away

[00:00:35] And give the children love each day

[00:00:38] I had to cry what could I say

[00:00:44] How hard I tried to find the words

[00:00:47] I prayed she would not see me cry

[00:00:50] So much to say that should be heard

[00:00:52] But only time to say goodbye to mama

[00:01:07] They say in time that you'll forget

[00:01:10] Yet still today my eyes are wet

[00:01:13] I tell myself to smile for Mama

[00:01:24] Now soon there'll be another spring

[00:01:27] And I will start remembering

[00:01:30] The way she loved to hear us sing

[00:01:33] Her favourite song 'Ave Maria'

[00:01:38] Ave Maria

[00:01:49] The children all have grown up now

[00:01:55] I kept my promise to mama

[00:02:01] I cannot guide them anymore

[00:02:07] I've done my best all for mama

[00:02:14] Ave Maria

[00:02:25] Still this seems so very small

[00:02:31] For all

[00:02:35] She did for me
