Mother And Child Reunion Lyrics - 1964-1993 - Paul Simon

No, I would not give you false hope 

On this strange and mournful day 

But the mother and child reunion 

Is only a motion away 

Oh, little darling of mine 

I can't for the life of me 

Remember a sadder day 

I know they say "let it be" 

But it just don't work out that way 

And the course of a lifetime runs 

Over and over again 

No, I would not give you false hope (no) 

On this strange and mournful day 

But the mother and child reunion 

Is only a motion away

Oh, little darling of mine 

I just can't believe it's so 

Though it seems strange to say 

I never been laid so low 

In such a mysterious way 

And the course of a lifetime runs 

Over and over again 

But I would not give you false hope (no) 

On this strange and mournful day 

When the mother and child reunion 

Is only a motion away 

Oh, the mother and child reunion 

Is only a motion away 

Oh, the mother and child reunion 

Is only a moment away

Oh, the mother and child reunion 

Is only a motion away 

Oh, the mother and child reunion 

Is only a moment away
