The hardest song I ever wrote Leaves a lump in my throat My memory showered with bright lights Of loving days and safe dark nights The summer came and to the fields you went To earn some pennies to pay the rent Your fingernails, they were black From potatoes thrown into the sack A pound a day you were paid So food on our table could be laid The hardest song I ever wrote Leaves a lump in my throat My memory showered with bright lights Of loving days and safe dark nights You never asked us for much Just a kiss, a cuddle, a gentle touch From the working class you were made Steel in the fire, you were forged so tough You somehow took the smooth with the rough The hardest song I ever wrote Leaves a lump in my throat My memory showered with bright lights Of loving days and safe dark nights The house of council, rent was paid With blood and sweat and the pennies you made You'd leave the house at 5am A cleaning job and the same again Your smile shone like a beaming light When you returned late at night You were strict as you needed to be With eleven in our family The cricket stump would leave its mark And prince the dog he would bark As each of us took our turn As to behave we had to learn The hardest song I ever wrote Leaves a lump in my throat My memory showered with bright lights Of loving days and safe dark nights I wake every day and see your smile Just lie in bed and think a while How lucky we all must have been I still see you in my dreams Love you Mum
