Do you remember when I was a baby   Did I cry, did I cry?   I only remember the days I was laughin'   When you sang me sweet lullabies   When you sang me sweet bye and bye      But sometimes I wonder if you were an angel   Would you fly, would you fly   Or would you just hover right here by my side   Keepin' me warm and dry   Keepin' me safe by your side      Mother mother won't fall from grace   Light a room with the lines on your face   And if you were a river run dry   Well I'd sing you sweet bye and bye      An' all of the birds that land on my window   Sing your name, sing your name   When all of the time I am cryin' again   About how much the sky likes to rain   When I should be singin' your name      Mother, mother won't fall from grace   Light a room with the lines on your face   And if you were a river run dry   Well I'd sing you sweet bye and bye      An' all of the flowers by the side of the road   They whisper your name while they grow   And if you were a river run dry   Well I'd sing you sweet bye and bye      And if you were a river run dry   Well I'd sing you sweet bye and bye
