It must have been a year ago,
when the doctor said there’s something you should know
I have a moment left, a little time here.
To say the things I’ve needed to for so long now.

Momma, how can I tell you, without the tears that fall
You taught me how to live, but love most of all.
Soon I’ll have to leave you here, soon I’ll have to go
But before I do, momma there’s something you should know.

My dear, how do I tell you what you’ve meant to me
So many times I’ve tried to just let you see
We were young and deep in love not so long ago
And before I go, Darling, there’s something you should
know.

It was like drinking lemonade in the summertime,
late nights and catching fireflies
It was the sweet mornings of mid July,
the autumn breeze and the change of leaves
That’s what it meant to me.
There’s no need to worry and no need to cry
When the angels come to set me free, I will fly

My little babes, oh how do I begin, what can I say
You all should know my love will forever with you stay
My life you are, my dreams and hopes, please know
Before I leave you babies, there’s something you should
know.

It was like drinking lemonade in the summertime,
late nights and catching fireflies
It was the sweet mornings of mid July,
the autumn breeze and the change of leaves
That’s what it meant to me.
There’s no need to worry and no need to cry
When the angels come to set me free, I will fly

I’ll fly to you while your sleeping
and leave a single kiss for you
Each morning when you wake
you’ll find I really left you two.
I’ll fly to you in your dreams
and take you for a dance
On moonlight beams and twilight seams
On golden stars that gleam.

When I think about you,
When I think about this time we’ve shared
And what it’s meant

It was like drinking lemonade in the summertime,
late nights and catching fireflies
It was the sweet mornings of mid July,
the autumn breeze and the change of leaves
That’s what it meant to me.
There’s no need to worry and no need to cry
When the angels come to set me free, I will fly

I will fly
