How Can I Help You Say Goodbye
guitar chords lyrics
Through the back window of a fifty-nine wagon
I watched my best friend Jamie slipping further way
I kept on waving 'til I couldn't see her
And through my tears I asked again why we couldn't stay
Mama whispered softly "Baby, time will ease the pain
Life's about changing, nothing ever stays the same"
She said "How can I help you to say goodbye?
It's okay to hurt and it's okay to cry
So come, let me hold and I will try
How can I help you to say goodbye?"
I sat on our bed, he packed a suitcase
I held a picture of our wedding day
His hands were trembling, we both were crying
Then he kissed me gently and he quickly walked away
I called my mama, she said "Time will ease the pain
His hands were trembling, we both were crying
Then he kissed me gently and he quickly walked away
I called my mama, she said "Time will ease the pain
Life's about changing, nothing ever stays the same"
She said "How can I help you to say goodbye?
It's okay to hurt and it's okay to cry
So come, let me hold and I will try
How can I help you to say goodbye?"
Sitting with mama, alone in her bedroom
She opened her eyes and then squeezed my hand
She said "I have to go now, my time here is over"
And with her final words she tried to help me understand
Mama whispered softly "Time will ease the pain
Life's about changing, nothing ever stays the same"
She said "How can I help you to say goodbye?
It's okay to hurt, it's okay to cry
So come, let me hold and I will try
How can I help you to say goodbye?"
