Where does your inner child go 
When your mother passes away?
Is it non existent
I wish it would just stay

I don't want to be grown-up
Not without my mother
Who shall I turn to now?
I shall turn to no other

I am left in this world
To survive on my own
Will the pain ever go away?
Will my wound ever be sewn?

All I want is my mommy
Is that asking for so much?
I miss my mother's sweet voice
And her gentle loving touch

Who shall I dance with at my wedding?
Who shall I turn to when I cry?
Why did they take you, Mommy
Why couldn't I be the one to die

Will you be there, Mommy
When it's my time to go
Will you take me into heaven
And forever love me so

I hope I see you again, Mommy
Being a grown-up is no fun
Especially with my problems
I have no place to run

When I talk about you, Mommy
I don't know where to start
One thing is for sure though, Mommy
You're always in my heart

As for my inner child
It died along with you
I am a grown-up now, Mommy
I hope in life you guide me through
