Now day just dims into the night.
I always wake in sorrow's light.

Your smile, your face, not in my sight.
Your precious memories I hold tight.

My son won't rise from this day on.
Time has stopped; my days don't dawn. 

No, not a dream, I'm here to stay.
I cannot breathe past this long day when angels took my son away, 

How is my life to carry on? 
So empty since my son is gone.

A mother's grief, a window of tears.
Same long, long day into my years! 

I pierce this veil of life and death
with purest love within my depth.

No, not a dream; I'm here to stay
within this long, long summer day.
