[Verse 1]

You fold his hands and smooth his tie, you gently lift his chin.

Were you really so blind, and unkind to him?

Can't help the itch to touch, to kiss, to hold him once again.

Am C

Now to close his eyes--never open them....

[Pre-Chorus]

A shadow passed, a shadow passed, yearning, yearning

All the things his mama wished he'd bear in mind,

Am C

And all his dad had hoped he'd know.
