Hayley Westenra Cosmos
Sweet cosmos in a pink shadow In the warm daylight you glow Just like my Mama Bathed in a gentle yellow She is fragile, I love her so
Together we sit in the sun We turn album pages one by one Mama tells me stories like it's the end She tells them like we'll never meet again
And on this warm autumn day we stand Mother, daughter hand in hand Our love burns brighter than before And then you tell me to take care Tell me not to fear Tomorrow, my wedding, my leaving here Take care
Memories are running round and round How I wish I could go back now To the times I didn't realise your love To the times I kept to myself
Leaving with my many bags I can tell from your eyes you are sad That I must go, but it is time It is time My love, my love, will stay behind
And on this warm autumn day we stand Mother, daughter hand in hand Our love burns brighter than before And then you tell me to take care Tell me not to fear Tomorrow, my wedding, my leaving here Take care
