I didn't say goodbye

When I was young,
My mother went to sleep.
She said goodbye,
And for the first time,
I didn't weep.
She was beautiful,
She was sweet.
She was wonderful,
Everything I need.

But now,
My mother is asleep,
And now I wish,
I could do more then weep.
I wish I could see her now,
I want to hug her, love her.
I want to fight with her, argue.
Everything I can't do.

Because my mother is asleep,
Because I can't do more then weep.
Because my sisters have to cry,
Because I didn't say goodbye.
