My Mother’s Face (Lyrics)
Written by Merelyn Carter, David Carter and Rene Ford
I watch her in the lamp light
The expression on her face
I wonder at her stillness
As she tries to concentrate
My mother’s eyes are not as strong
As they once used to be
She strains to catch her thread
And somehow seems
So much older, as if the lines have just appeared
I watch her now remembering
Childhood words I hear

Each line tells a story
Every wrinkle has it’s place
In time you’ll see history
Written on your face
May the lines that come from sorrow
Never run too deep
It’s the ones that come from laughter
I pray you’ll always keep

She stops and turns to smile at me
And suddenly it seems
All those years of happiness
Are written there to see
First teeth and steps and day of school
Girl Guide jamboree
As I’ve grown up
I’ve always known
How proud she is of me
Though time has left its mark
For all the world to see
There’s nothing quite as beautiful
As my mother’s face to me…..

When I was young and on her knee
My fingers traced so carefully
The curves of the lines on her face
Back then I didn’t understand
So she would gently guide my hand
And show me which ones were for me…..
