after revealing how her mother died, Penelope now looks back at her Mothers life and how grateful she was to be in it.
lyrics
Perfect days
Until I laid
The bouquet
On her grave
She wrote cartoons
Did the voices too
When she told me
To behave
Never needed a TV
When she was sat next to me
Pulling a face
In uppercase
Drawings were on the wall
As I learnt to crawl
I wish you kept them all
From when I was small
I want to be as good as you were
But I
Don’t know how
Were you a natural?
Because I’m feeling
Found out
On holidays
We would find the shade
Head to the shop and make
Iced Nescafé
The biggest smile in the family
Showing me off endlessly
The dinner table became a pageantry
I want to be as good as you were
But I
Don’t know how
Were you a natural?
Because I’m feeling
Found out
You always had faith in me
It was unfounded
You told me my future was so bright
Now I am feeling so alone
With this baby
So full of doubt
Every single decision
Makes me think of you
Your voice is so loud
And I am so proud
To have been part of your story
But the time now must be for me
To make my own
