Anne Sofie Von Otter - I Walk With You, Mama lyrics

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 colours, 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, Given 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 I've come to terms I know now, Athough it seems everywhere that I go now... I walk with you, Mama, A road that knows a journey, Retracing every footstep, 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
