[G]
I've just been to heaven [C] with someone [G] so true.
[D] I dreamed about [G] Mom last night.
She read me the Bible [C] like she [G] used to do.
[D] I dreamed about [G] Mom last night.
She never closed her [C] eyes in sleep, so we were [G] all in bed.
[D] On party nights till we'd come home, she often sat [G] and read.
We little thought about it then, when we were young and gay,
how much Mother [C] worried when we children [G] were away.
[D] We only knew she never slept [G] when we were out at night,
and that she waited just to know [C] that we'd come home all right.
Why, sometimes when we'd stay [G] away till one or two or [A] three,
it seemed to us that Mother heard the [D] turning of the key.
For always when we'd [G] step inside, she'd call and we'd reply,
but we [C] were all too young back [G] then to understand just [D] why.
Until the last one had [G] returned, she always kept a light,
for Mother couldn't sleep until she'd kissed us all goodnight.
[C] She had to know [G] that we were safe before [D] she went to rest.
She seemed to [G] fear the world might harm the ones she loved the best.
And once she said, when you are [C] grown to women and to men,
[G] perhaps I'll sleep the [D] whole night through.
I may be different then.
[G] And so it seemed that night and day we knew a [C] mother's care,
that always when we got back home we'd find her waiting there.
[G] Then came [A] the night that we were called together around her bed.
[D] The children are all with you now, the kindly [G] doctor said.
And in her eyes there [C] gleamed again that [G] old time tender light,
[D] that told she had been waiting just to know [G] we were all all right.
She smiled the old familiar smile and prayed to God [C] to keep us safe [G] from harm throughout the years.
[D] And then she went to sleep.
[G]
I still see her smiling [C] wherever [G] I go.
[D] I dreamed about Mom last [G] night.
I know that she's happy [C] cause she [G] told me so.
