The Me That Wa Your Son Lyrics

Mother, you have been dead now for six years
And in the years since then, I have grown to know my father,
and this makes me happy.
Do you know that you two are so different? And I wish I
remembered the two of you together, but all I have are
photos of them, and they tell me a lot, but only in the way
that a smell reminds you of a time long gone.

This makes me sad, my friends don't know the you then,Poi Dog Pondering - The Me That Wa Your Son - http://motolyrics.com/poi-dog-pondering/the-me-that-wa-your-son-lyrics.html
nor have they ever met the me that was your son.

Mother, when I'm in my memory of you,
I meet again the me that was your son,
and he is a stranger, but so are you.
But Mamma, one cannot live in the past.
Everyday brings new decisions,
new sadness and new joy.
