We Said Good-Bye In a Dream

It wasn't long after I lost you, I had a dream to tell you good-bye, You ran to me, From out of a light, A filed of beautiful flowers, Did appear, You jumped into my arms, And I spun you around, We kissed each others face, And held tightly our embrace, You said to me, I'm sorry mom, I didn't know that, We would have to, Let each other go, You were the best mom, I could have ever had, I told you how very much, Iloved you and life, Would never be the same, Without you, As your arms slipped from mine, I could literally feel you let go, I sat up in bed, And grabbed my own arms, And you were gone.
