Mother Has a Great Fall

Mother has a great fall
She fell out of my hands
She fell out of my eyes 
She fell behind the mountains 
She fell behind the sea
She fell away from the earth
Where did she go?
Somewhere I didn't know 
Where did she go ? 
Somewhere in the dark and cold
What did she left behind? 
A story of 88 years old
What did she left behind? 
Brothers, sisters and I, plus her gold
