Too Soon

through love's labor,
 her labor
 sons and daughters were blessed and given favor
 she smiled and we were safe
 she cried the cords gave way
 we grew into life
 we left our homes too soon
 too soon... too soon. too soon.
 my mother's face
 her state of grace
 I hope I have your strength and all your gentle ways
 she smiled and we were safe
 she cried the cords gave way
 we grew into life
 we left our homes too soon... too soon...
 too soon. too soon
 as the years, they come and go
 she will find her soul
 in quiet life. she will hear
 those voices sound so sweet and clear
 so sweet and clear' so sweet and clear
 so sweet and clear' so sweet and clear
 it's too soon
 too soon' too soon... it's too soon...
 ... yeah... hey... yeah... yeah...
 yeah
