Lyrics Mother and Child Reunion - Paul Simon
No,
I
would
not
give
you
false
hope
On
this
strange
and
mournful
day
But
the
mother
and
child
reunion
Is
only
a
motion
away
Oh,
little
darling
of
mine
I
can't
for
the
life
of
me
Remember
a
sadder
day
I
know
they
say
"let
it
be"
But
it
just
don't
work
out
that
way
And
the
course
of
a
lifetime
runs
Over
and
over
again
No,
I
would
not
give
you
false
hope
(no)
On
this
strange
and
mournful
day
But
the
mother
and
child
reunion
Is
only
a
motion
away
Oh,
little
darling
of
mine
I
just
can't
believe
it's
so
Though
it
seems
strange
to
say
I
never
been
laid
so
low
In
such
a
mysterious
way
And
the
course
of
a
lifetime
runs
Over
and
over
again
But
I
would
not
give
you
false
hope
(no)
On
this
strange
and
mournful
day
When
the
mother
and
child
reunion
Is
only
a
motion
away
Oh,
the
mother
and
child
reunion
Is
only
a
motion
away
Oh,
the
mother
and
child
reunion
Is
only
a
moment
away
Oh,
the
mother
and
child
reunion
Is
only
a
motion
away
Oh,
the
mother
and
child
reunion
Is
only
a
moment
away
