Amongst the shadows creeping in  A life will end while one begins  When such a burden fills your eyes  It's just a day in this strange life  Hold a mother's weary hand  There's no use trying to understand  It's so unkind, this isn't fair, this isn't right    Then quickly the moment's gone  And all along through the night  I cry for you and I    Turn a corner, turn it right  Just cast your shadow in the light  Another day has just gone by  The sun and moon lost track of time  And now your eyes are closed, you rest  You look ahead while I digress  It's so unkind, this isn't fair, this isn't right    Amongst the fear a calm creeps in  Forgiveness gives from deep within  She's gone with reason in her eyes  I've come to terms with this strange life  Hold a mother's weary hand  And she will make you understand  What is life, what is fair, what is right    Copyright 2007
