Take with you our hearts Mom, take them to heaven too.
Hold them as you always have, keep them safe with you.

It won’t seem but a second, as you wait to see.
One by one we’ll return to you to spend eternity.

For us that time will seem longer, memories will have to do.
Until we make our final journey, and again spend time with you.
