Summertime Feels So Cold
v1
I woke up this mornin’ with you on my mind
I stumbled out of bed with tears in my eyes
Had a lump in my throat, oh, how I started to cry
Guess I was dreamin’ ‘bout saying goodbye
ch
Mamma, you’re still in my heart
You’re still calming my fears
You linger in my thoughts
After all of these years
You keep dancin’ in my dreams
You’re burned on my soul
Though it’s one hundred degrees
Summertime feels so cold

My shakin’ hands make the coffee
Then I pour myself some joe
These damn tears keep a fallin’
What’s come over me- I don’t know
It’s been so many years
You’ve been gone a long, long time
Mamma, I can’t forget you
Guess that’s why I cry
ch
Mamma, you’re still in my heart
You’re still calming my fears
You linger in my thoughts
After all of these years
You keep dancin’ in my dreams
You’re burned on my soul
Though it’s one hundred degrees
Summertime feels so cold
end
My only regret is that you never met
All your sweet, sweet grandchildren
It plays with my mind when I look in their eyes
Somehow you’re still alive

Maybe you'll turn these into a song one day.
and this song arose from your mother's ongoing strong presence in your life.
To remember your dream so well as to so creatively respond to it with such songs
shows a remarkable connection between your inner and outer personal worlds.
arleen... miss you, miss you, miss you!!! it has been a while. hey and thank you for sharing... it is good to know that you are in contact with your mum. how was she when she saw your sons?
