lyrics

I named you Ann the day you were born and wished you a better life
Before they took you from my arms, a preacher and his wife

I wanted everything for you
All the love I never knew
I remembered every time I cried
June 16th, 1935

You had my mother's eyes, bluer than the bluest sky, I wonder do you have your father's smile?
Does your nose freckle like mine when you're out too long in summertime
Do you think about me once in awhile?

I wanted everything for you
All the love I never knew
I remembered every time I cried
June 16th, 1935

You're grown and I am old, do you have daughters, do you have sons?
Do they have those blue sky eyes?
Have you found a love that's true with arms for only you
And a smile that will never say good-bye

I want everything for you
All the love I never knew
I remember when I cry
June 16th, 1935
