Am Too
For my Mother
Most words From "Inscription for Katrina's Sun-Dial" by Henry van Dyke
Hours fly, Flowers die. New days, New ways,
Pass by. Love stays
Time is too swift for those
who fear
I'm in love he'd say
with you he'd say
Am too she'd say
if she knew
Hours fly, Flowers die. New days, New ways,
Pass by. Love stays
Time is too long for those
who grieve
I'm in love he said
with you he said
what will I do
without you
Hours fly, Flowers die. New days, New ways,
Pass by. Love stays
Time is too short for those
who rejoice
I'm in love he said
with her he said
I Can't wait to spread
the news
Hours fly, Flowers die. New days, New ways,
Pass by. Love stays
But for those who have love,
Time's not.
I'm in love he said
with you he said
Am too she said
with you

2) Initially the breaking glass sound that introduces the song was caught on my microphone due me knocking the ceiling lamp down due to over exuberant dancing while singing the song. Unfortunately when I brought it to a decent level it was too distorted (this is probably the only time you will ever hear me say too distorted). Rock Savage and Free Sound Org to the rescue.
