Because I Knew Their Mother

Because I knew their mother
There's a bond that we share
I can reach them like no other...
With their mother's care

You may ask how I do this?
Oft times it's through prayer
Softening me, to notice
A special love so rare

Someday when, again, I see her
I hope she will approve
Right now it brings, to me a tear
Knowing what death cannot remove

This is what the Cinderella story should have been...The father dies and remarries a dear friend who knew his wife. In a way like no other, she can keep the memory of the mother alive, and, heal the grief.

[Verse 1] Because I knew their mother There's a bond that we share I can reach them like no other... With their mother's care [Pre-Chorus] You may ask how I do this? Oft times it's through prayer Softening me, to notice A special love so rare [Chorus] Someday when, again, I see her I hope she will approve Right now it brings, to me a tear Knowing what death cannot remove [Verse 2] Because I knew their mother I carry what she gave In the way I speak to them And the mercy that I save [Pre-Chorus] You may ask how I do this? Oft times it's through prayer Softening me, to notice A special love so rare [Chorus] Someday when, again, I see her I hope she will approve Right now it brings, to me a tear Knowing what death cannot remove [Bridge] If love can cross the silence Then love can still remain In every quiet kindness In every spoken name [Final Chorus] Someday when, again, I see her I hope she will approve Right now it brings, to me a tear Knowing what death cannot remove
