I had another daydream again today
I drifted off in my own usual way
I often wondered how it would be
If the door opened up and it was he
He told me it was an awful mistake
It wasn’t him that night it was all a fake
He was away at college this whole time
And now he’s back and he’s all mine
He heard I needed him at home so bad
And couldn’t stand it that I was so sad
So he journeyed and crossed over all the miles
Just to make me happy and see me smile
I showed him his room; it's still the same
His stuff on the shelves, it all remains
Except daddy now goes in there to think and pray
that we could rest and find peace someday
You're jumping on Dan and he's screaming with joy
The brotherly love that is sharred between boys
And now we are whole and at peace again
Just our silly family the way it once began
We sit at the table, all four of us
And we had so many things to discuss
We showed you how dad keeps your car all waxed up
I made you another hot chocolate in your favorite cup
What a perfect Mothers Day this turned out to be
Both my boys together with dad and me
We made plans to go out and celebrate
This would be the most perfect Mothers Day date
Then I awake from my Mothers Day dream
tears won't stop once more as they stream
Because then I had to stop and realize
that dreams like this don't come true in our lives
So another Mothers Day has passed without you my love
But I know you're always watching me from above
It just doesn't get any easier by the month or the year
No matter how time passes there are always daily tears
I guess you know that I keep your little brother so close
and he has his own dreams of you too so you know
Dad dreams of you too most every night
And with me your visions are always in sight
So stay close to us son any way that you can
and ride along with your brother he's not yet a man
help keep him safe in your heavenly way
and I'll keep on dreaming of you until meet again someday
