Seven years ago I called you and told you that I had met the one
A few years after that I phoned and recalled to you how it was no fun
You said to me then "When one door closes it's not the end, but then another opens and that my friend is how the cycle spins around and someday you will get what you deserve "

But that was a long time ago
And now you're gone
And I'm still standing here

Oh mom, did you know
What I had planned to do in December.
Why'd you race me to the finish line,
Did you mean to beat me?
And I wish I could take it back
Then maybe you'd still be here
But deep down in my heart, I know that this was inevitable..

Seven months ago I phoned you and told you that was with my friend
A few days after that I called you and told you that I had wrote a song
You said to me then "I'm gonna show this to everyone and I'm so grateful to have you as my son"
And after that I cried because the wolf had told me that "I don't deserve…"

But that was a long while ago
And now you're dead
And I'm still lying here

Oh mom, did you know
What I had planned to do in December.
Why'd you race me to the finish line,
Did you mean to beat me?
And I wish I could take it back
Then maybe you'd still be here
But deep down in my heart, I know that this was inevitable..

Oh, I've refused to cry despite the time
That's passed, cuz I know what happens,
If I recluse towards the line, I will have to start to let you go
I won't, no I won't, I just can't let go
I won't, I won't…

Oh mom, did you know
