Текст песни Sweeter Than The Flowers (Emmylou Harris) с переводом

Just as far as I can remember

She’ll remain the rose of my heart

Mom took sick along in December

February brought us broken hearts

The reason we have not called a family reunion

We knew — she wouldn’t be there

But since we have thought it all over, Mama

We know that your spirit is there

Oh, no, I can’t forget the hours

You are the onliest one Mom and sweeter than the flowers

Oh, no, there is no need to bother

To speak of you now would only hurt Father

Well, it looked so good to see us together

But I had to look after Dad

Oh, no, Mama, when I passed by your coffin

I didn’t want to remember you dead

They all gathered around, I stared at their faces

All heads were bowed mighty low

But that was one time we all had to face it

Though it hurt us so bad, you know

Oh, no, Mama, we’ll never forget you

And someday we’ll meet you up there
