Lyrics :
No I would not give you false hope
On this strange and mournful day
But the mother and child reunion
Is only a motion away
Oh, oh little darling of mine, I can't for
the life of me
Remember a sadder day, I know they say to let it be
It just don't work out that way
In the course of a lifetime runs over and over again
But I would not give you false hope
On this strange and mournful day
But the mother and child reunion
Is only a motion away
Oh, oh little darling of mine, I just can't
believe it's so
Though it seems strange to say, I never been laid so low
In such a mysterious way
In the course of a lifetime runs over and over again
But I would not give you false hope (no)
On this strange and mournful day
But the mother and child reunion
Is only a motion away
But the mother and child reunion, is only
a motion away
But the mother and child reunion, is only a moment away (hey)
But the mother and child reunion, is only a motion away
But the mother and child reunion, is only a moment away
Only a moment away
Yeah, oh yeah
