No i would not give you false hopes
On this strange and mournful day
When the mother and child reunion
Is only a motion away

Oh, little darling of mine
I can't for the life of me
Remember a sadder day
I know they say just let it be

Just don't work out that way
And 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
When the mother and child reunion
Is only a motion away
Yes, it's only a motion away, mm..
