Sometimes you don't feel like smiling,
When there's a hole in your heart,
When someone is missing
Baby's life from the start.
Not there to call,
No not all
For every smile,
Every step,
Every gurgle and shout,
She's not there,
She's missing them all.
Sometimes you don't feel like smiling,
When there's a hole in your heart,
When someone is missing
When you just want to shout,
No more cuddle,
Or kindly words,
No more giggles,
No more chin up and stamp that weed right out.
No she's missing everything.
Sometimes you don't feel like smiling,
When there's a hole in your heart.
When someone is missing
Watching them grow,
Not there to see,
Their crazy dancing,
Their school play,
Their excited faces to unwrap her presents.
No she's missing out.
Sometimes you don't feel like smiling,
When there's a hole in your heart,
When someone is missing,
But memories stay,
She did that here
And she did that there,
She was one of a kind.
But what would she say now?
Don't wallow, or worry,
Don't miss what's next.
RIP mum x
