Mama Here, Mama Gone

Basinets and babies, St. Vincent's Infants Home
Orphaned in limbo, helpless and alone
Paradise receding, paradise withdrawn
A tiny heart is beating

Mama here, mama gone
Mama gone

Cut loose and falling through the crevasse cradle crack
Rock-a-bye baby, mama ain't coming back
This night has no ending, this darkness no dawn
Descending, descending

Mama here, mama gone
Mama gone

Days and nights are falling
Through darkness without dawn
Baby's arms quit reaching

Mama here, mama gone
Mama gone, mama gone
Mama gone
