Oh Mother dear
       C              G
What a night this has been
                                    Em
I awoke in the light of a vision in white
    A                   G      D    G
The prettiest girl that I have ever seen
G                        C       G
Lately my love, said the lady in white
                                            Em
I have watched from afar, but love draws me near
    A                  D             Em
Now take my hand, hold tight, Mother dear
       G                    A            Em
Do you know what this could mean, Mother dear
       G            Em     A   D         G
Was it just another dream         in the night

Saw a figure in black by the lady in white
   A                 D             Em    A
He said his name was death, was he right

   A                    D           F#m     A
In corridors of air the clouds were waiting there
     A         C               Am                A
They knew that never again the skies would be so blue
     A                     D                F#m
They took away the sun and with it took the fun
     A         C                   F#m            A
It's true, and now there is really nothing I can do
   A                 F             G                 C
So I look outside my window at the sheets of pouring rain
      A      G      F        D    A      E
And I wonder if the sun will come again

It wasn't long ago the people that I know were glad
    C                                   A
And nothing they ever thought about was sad
    A                            D                  F#m
But since the sun has gone their laughing times are none
       A       C                                        A
That's bad, to make them forget the happy times they've had
   A            G          F             G         F       C
So they look outside their window at the sheets of pouring rain

(Spoken)
Don't ask me how I know
But this dark sky will soon be blue
Don't ask, no don't ask
Just watch as the grey mists of winter fall
Like so many drops of dew
Feel the ice melt to warm tears in my eyes
Uner the light of a tin sun
Do not ask me how I know
The effect of light on unseeing eyes
How should I know?
How could I know?
