Lifeless in my arms her body lies.
It is something I cannot bear.
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
It's a feeling that will not go away.
I feel my heart begin to tear.
Lifeless in my arms her body lies.
In my arms is where she'll stay,
Looking at me with a frozen stare.
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
I keep my mother where she lay.
No one else seems to care.
Lifeless in my arms her body lies.
Wasn't there another way.
I didn't get to say farewell.
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
There's nothing more that I can say,
About my mother.
While lifeless in my arms her body lies.
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
