Let Mommy Go
I wrote this lyrics as an exercise. A friend of mine gave me the topic and I had to write something based on it. The story is about a very young child whose mother died recently, and how she feels about it. I wrote it in the child's point of view to make the story more deep and heartfelt.

(Verse1)
It was summer or spring
I don't remember everything
All I remember is I had to wear black
So I asked Daddy "where is Mommy at?"
He said her car has been crashed
And his eyes got wet
(Chorus)
He knelt down and said "Mommy's in a nice place now"
The lines on his face changed somehow
I told him: "But I didn't want her to go"
"I didn't want her to go either" He said so
(Verse2)
After the black dressed day
I got a new puppy, her name was May
We played a lot and she made me laugh
But ever since Mommy went to that
Nice place Daddy was always sad
He didn't even hug me before I went to bed
(Chorus)
So I held my puppy and said "everything's gonna be fine"
I told her "Daddy just needs some time...
...I know he didn't want to let Mommy go
Oh no, I know he didn't want to..."
(Verse3)
One night I had a bad dream
And I ran to Daddy while I screamed
I cried for Mommy but he said she's not here
I wanted to go to that nice place, I wanted to be there
Cause she always calmed me down after a nightmare
But then Daddy picked me up and stroked my hair
(Chorus)
I cried "I want my Mommy back!"
"She's always be there for you" Daddy whispered
"She never really left us though
So we don't need to let her go"
(Outro)
Daddy kept calming me down
"I know it's unusual now...
But don't cry....
Cause Mommy's still here.... In our hearts... "
