Can’t Be There Today

Lyrics
An invite to a wedding That no one can attend A poster for a show that never happened Two tickets for a holiday I can longer spend And a gift for Mothers Day I won't be wrapping This is all I'm left with In a world that's been shut down I wannna come see you mum But I fear that thing I might bring in So I'm sending you this message With a heavy heart to say "I miss you but I can't be there today I love you and that's I'm gonna to stay away" It feels like hope has been postponed All plans put on hold Prospects fade and expectations shattered But all through these uncertain days I've come to understand Those few precious things that truly matter Mama you've been on my mind As the world has slipped away Promise me you'll do the things That must be done in the days to come
