Walking Piece of Heaven

It was just like yesterday

They were young and full of play

And the halls would echo laughter all around

She would wash and cook and sew

For each one as they grow

For a mother's love is endless and sincere

If she could turn back the years

Turn back the years

But she had them all beside her

If she could turn back the years

Turn back the years

But she had them all around her

Now she has to live on dreams

But she had to watch them go

To find lands you know

For there isn't any work for them at home

Now the house it is so still

At the foot of that old hill

Where this is what a mother's wish could be

If she could turn back the years

Turn back the years

But she had them all beside her

If she could turn back the years

Turn back the years

But she had them all around her

Now she has to live on dreams

Now she has to live on dreams
