Description
This is a song that attached itself to my heart on July 9th, 2009, when I walked into my mother's hospital room to hear/see her crying and begging for help. She died 12 days later from bone cancer.
Lyrics
Oh I wish I was blind, so I couldn't see, all your pain, in front of me. I felt you cryin, like a knife to my soul, gonna hold out my hand, ya' got something to hold. All my life, you lived for me-and there you lay, in agony. Momma what can I do? tell me what can I say. I'll do anything I can, to take it all away. Oh I'm just not ready, for you to go. (I) don't want to see, what I already know. I see you hurtin, no life in your eyes. Momma you know me, I'm no good with goodbyes. Oh I wish I was blind, so I couldn't see, all your pain, in front of me. I felt your cryin, like a knife to my soul. Gonna hold out my hand, ya' got somethin to hold. Gonna hold out my hand, ya' got somethin to hold. Gonna hold out my hand, ya'got somethin to hold, somethin to hold, somethin to hold.
