I Walk With You, Mama

I walk with you, mama The path along the river We feed the swans, we say hello to people that we meet I talk with you, mama And I listen, and I hear you say "I'm sorry that I left you on your own this way" I walk with you, mama The park in autumn colors The sadness in the air, as oak and maples shed their leaves I talk with you, mama And I listen, and I hear you say "I'm sorry that I left you on your own this way" Yes you should have stayed a bit longer Giving me some more of your time Couldn't even wait to say goodbye How could you be in such a frightful hurry Leaving me with so many questions Having so much more love to give In a way have come to terms I know now Although it seems everywhere that I go now I walk with you, mama A road that knows a journey Retracing every footsteps every sunday in the park I talk with you, mama And I listen, and I hear you say "I'm sorry that I left you on your own this way"
