The first song I ever knew my mother taught me. It is the song of Victor Wood Crying Time. My mother loved it when she sang it for us when she put my siblings in the hammock. She just love it like other song Speak Softly Love. These two soundtrack to her life became mind too. I kept singing to my soul. Listening these two songs reminding me about our life and how my mother started her life and how it ended peacefully.
Crying Time by Victor Wood
*Oh, it's cryin' time again,
you're gonna leave me
I can see that far
away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way
you hold me darlin', ooh
That it won't be long
before it's cryin' time
Now they say that absense makes
the heart grow fonder (fonder)
And that tears are only
rain to make love grow
Well, my love for you could never
grow no stronger (stronger)
If I live to be a hundred years old
Oh, it's cryin' time again,
you're gonna leave me
I can see that far
away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you
hold me darlin', yeah now
That it won't be long
before it's cryin' time
Oh, it's cryin' time again,
you're gonna leave me
I can see that far
away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you
hold me darlin', alright now
That it won't be long
before it's cryin' time
oh its crying time again
youre gonna leave me
i can see that far away
look in youre eyes
i can tell by the way you hold
me darling ..
(That it won't be long
before it's cryin' time)*
Speak Softly Love by Andy Williams
Speak softly, love and hold me warm against your heart
I feel your words, the tender trembling moments start
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine-colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly, love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will live until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly love
Wine-colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly, love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will live until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly love

These songs would never die until the end of my life. Its about my love, my family and my mother. Two songs hits my life and love and it coincides how it defined the love of my mother.
That's all for now and have a great day!
