What song and/or artist is this?!
Question: Here's some of the lyrics (it's sad, be warned):
Through the back window
of a 59 wagon,
I watched my best friend Jamie slipping further away.
I kept on waving
'til I couldn't see her,
and through my tears I asked again
why we couldn't stay.
Mama whispered softly,
time will ease your pain.
Life's about changing,
nothing ever stays the same.
And she said,
how can I help you to say goodbye?
It's okay to hurt,
and it's okay to cry.
Come let me hold you and I will try.
How can I help you to say goodbye?
Sitting with Mama,
alone in her bedroom
she opened her eyes,
and then squeezed my hand.
She said,
I have to go now,
and I'm (something) now.
And with her finer words,
she tried to help me understand.
Mama whispered softly,
time will ease your pain.
Life's about changing,
nothing ever stays the same.
And she said
How can I help you
to say goodbye?
It's okay to hurt
and it's okay to cry.
Come let me hold you
and I will tryyyyyyyyyy.
How can I help you
to say goodbye?
