Loveless Patty - A Handful of Dust

Album:

Throught the back window of a `59 wagonI watch my best friend Janey slippin further awayI kept on waving, til I couldn't see herAnd through my tears I ask again why we counldn't stayMama wispered softly, time will ease your painLife's about changing, nothing ever stays the sameAnd she said, how can I help you to say good-byeIt's okay to hurt, and it's okay to cryCome let me hold you and I will tryHow can I help you to say good-byeI sit on our bedHe packs his suitcaseI help a picture of our wedding dayHis hands were tremblingWe both were cryingHe kissed me gently, then he quickly walked awayI called up mama, she said time will ease your painLife's about chaning, nothering ever satys the sameAnd she said, how can I help you to say good-byeIt's okay to hurt, and it's okay to cryCome let me hold you, and I will tryHow can I help you to say good-byeSitting with mama,Alone in her bedroomShe opened her eyes, and then squeezed my handShe said, I have to go nowMy time here is overAnd with her final words, she tried to help me understandMama wispered softly, time will ease your painLife's about changing, nothing ever stays the sameAnd she said, how can I help you to say good-byeIt's okay to hurt, and it's okay to cryCome let me hold you, and I will tryHow can I help you,To say good-bye Mandie
