I'm writing you to let you know How things are at home You taught me things I'll always know But I'm still a lost soul Mother, don't forget your son The hardest part of waking up is knowing you're gone There's one thing that you should know You were right about it all He's waiting. You're fading fast There's only whiskey for the gaul Mother, don't forget your son The hardest part of waking up is knowing you're gone It's seeping through. I'm breaking out, but not without you Nothing's right anymore The day has grown long Don't be scared. Just move on toward the light Even angels need to sleep sometime I'm keeping the beat of your heart (go on! Go on!) I'm trying to let it go (just fly away! Fly away home!) Mother, don't forget your son (just fly away! Fly away home!) The hardest part of waking up is knowing you're gone. (just fly away! Fly away home!) It's seeping through! F'm breaking out, but not without you. (just fly away! fly away home!) Nothing's right anymore The day has grown long Fly away home
