Caroline's Baby

from Butterflies and Spiders by Eddie Mole

about

Dark, sad, growing old, mother and son

lyrics

An elderly lady
With fine white hair
Is framed at the window
She looks trapped in there
And as I glance back
I see her smile has gone
She looks tired and alone
Sad and forlorn

Picture this!
“You’re the man of the house
I need you to be strong
Your brother can’t understand
Where your father has gone”
So I swallowed my tears
Kept my emotions within
Now I can’t hide those feelings
All over again

My heart is breaking
With the bond that began
On the day that we first
Became mother and son

And now she can’t manage
And needs love and care
Good people will help her
As she heads to the end
And Caroline’s baby
Is helpless and sad
To see Caroline standing there
Waving her hand

I want to remember
The love in her eyes
As I drive down the road
And we wave our goodbyes
I’ll remember forever
The love in her eyes
As I drive down the road
With tears in my eyes
