Songtexte La Mamma - Connie Francis

Ave maria
She said
My daughter, I beg of you, I have a wish that must come true
The last thing you can do for Mama, please promise me that you′ll stay
And take my place while I'm away
And give the children love each day
I had to cry
What could I say
How hard I try to find a word
I pray she wouldn′t see my cry
So much to say that should be heard
But only time to say goodbye
To Mama
They say in time that you forget
Still today my eyes are wet
I tell myself to smile
Oh Mama
Now soon there'll be another spring
And I'll be remembering the way she loved to hear me sing
Her favorite song
Ave maria
Ave maria
The children had all grown up now
I′ve kept my promise to Mama
I cannot guide them anymore
I′ve done my best all for Mama
Ave maria
But still it seems
So very small
For all she did for me
