Lyrics

[00:12.71] another day's at end
[00:18.55] mama says she's tired again
[00:24.71] no one can even begin to tell her
[00:31.14]
[00:36.01] i hardly know what to say
[00:42.05] but maybe it's better that way
[00:47.73] if poppa were here i'm sure he'd tell her
[00:55.44]
[02:31.96][00:59.56] shannon is gone i heard
[02:35.84][01:03.52] she's drifting out to sea
[02:43.44][01:11.07] she always loved to swim away
[02:50.68][01:18.46] ah....
[02:54.97][01:22.83] maybe she'll find an island
[02:59.23][01:27.13] with a shaded tree
[03:17.92][03:06.22][01:34.38] just like the one in our backyard
[03:31.69][03:12.85][01:40.92] ah...
[03:57.08][01:44.41]
[01:46.05] mama tries hard to pretend
[01:51.77] that things will get better again
[01:57.46] somehow she's keepin' it all inside her
[02:04.68]
[02:08.89] but finally the tears fill our eyes
[02:14.83] and i know that somewhere tonight
[02:20.43] she knows how much we really miss her
[02:27.47]
[00:00.05]
